THE HILL | The Alabama A&M women's tennis head coach Willis Mbandi announced the 2025 spring schedule Wednesday afternoon, featuring three Conference USA (CUSA) and two Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) opponents.  
  
The Bulldogs went 7-15 overall and 4-5 in Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) play last season and won the HBCU National Championship in September. 
  
"It's always exciting when we get to compete," Mbandi said. "We feel like we prepared well this fall, and we look forward to a successful season."
