RALEIGH, N.C. - The NC State men's tennis team improved its ranking to No. 19 in the latest Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) polls, as released by the organization on Tuesday.

This season, the Pack has claimed three victories against teams listed in the top 40 of the rankings, including VCU (No. 28), Michigan (No. 39) and South Carolina (No. 40).

The Pack will conclude its non-conference slate as it takes on Appalachian State and Winthrop on Friday, March 7. The Pack will square off against the Mountaineers at noon before welcoming the Eagles at 5 p.m.
