BLACKSBURG, VA — Virginia Tech (2-7, 0-4 ACC) looks for its first conference win of the season Saturday against No. 49 Notre Dame (7-5, 2-3 ACC).


Tech is trying to shake a four-match losing streak and the Irish are looking for a rebound after dropping their last two matches. Notre Dame hasn’t played since Feb. 21, while the Hokies are fresh off of a loss to Louisville on March 5.


The Irish have been unable to win an away match this season and look to find their first win at an opponent's court in Blacksburg. The Hokies are 2-5 at home on the season.


Nika Kozar was one of two Hokies to win their singles matchup against the Cardinals and currently has a two-game singles win streak. Kozar will look to extend this hot stretch and ignite the Hokies in the match on Saturday.


In the ACC, Notre Dame is currently seventh while the Hokies are at the bottom, still trying to find their footing in conference play for the 2020-21.
