PROVO -- The 60th-ranked BYU men's tennis team hosts a doubleheader this weekend as intermountain rivals Denver and the University of Colorado come to town.

The 69th --ranked University of Denver Pioneers boast a 6-2 record with its only two losses to Colorado and conference rival UNLV. BYU will play the Pioneers Friday at 5 p.m in the first match of the weekend doubleheader.

Saturday at 3 p.m., the Cougars take on the 65th --ranked Buffalos for the second of their two-match doubleheader. The 3-2 Buffalos have losses to 1st --ranked Baylor and to 44th --ranked Boise State.

The two schools are no stranger to Provo, each of the two teams traveled to Provo earlier in the year to compete in the BYU Invitational, which was won by BYU's 91st --ranked Jeff Das.

This marks only the Cougars third home match of the season. Earlier the Cougars swept both Weber and Utah State in a doubleheader and breezed by Oregon to give the men in blue and white a perfect home record.
