UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. –The Penn State Women's Tennis team will resume fall tournament play as the Nittany Lions prepare to travel to Blacksburg, Va. for the ITA Regionals hosted by Virginia Tech. The tournament will begin on Friday, Oct. 25 and conclude on Tuesday, Oct. 29.
 
The Nittany Lions will be represented by junior Gabby O'Gorman (Gunnedah, N.S. Wales, Australia), sophomore Olivia Ryan (Victoria, Australia), junior Olivia Rohrbacher (Sandusky, Ohio), junior Hanna Wikberg (Stockholm, Sweden), senior Samantha Smith (Cary, N.C.), and junior Frederikke Svarre (Copenhagen, Denmark).
