Tennis

The Texas Tennis Center was host to another top-15 matchup over the weekend, with No. 3 Texas meeting up with the No. 15 USC Trojans on Sunday afternoon.

Spring is a time of renewal. It also signifies the return of the Big 12 gauntlet for Texas. The Longhorns sought to start conference play with a strong performance against Kansas State.

Entering Saturday’s contest, Texas was looking forward to a test against a hungry Pepperdine team. No. 20 Pepperdine started to gain attention with an earlier sweep against No. 6 UCLA. Another victory against a top-10 team would further cement its success, and the Waves clearly looked ready.

According to the complaint, Center is accused of accepting approximately $100,000 from “CW-1,” or Cooperating Witness 1. The $100,000 was “in exchange for which Center would designate a student as a recruit to the U-Texas tennis team, thereby facilitating his admission to U-Texas.”
