SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – The Oral Roberts women's tennis team will compete in the Summit League Championship after League officials released the 2024 bracket on Sunday afternoon.
 
The championship event will kick off with top-seeded Denver (15-6, 6-0 SL) matching up against No. 4 Oral Roberts (7-13, 3-3 SL) on Friday at 9 a.m. CT.
 
Earning the No. 2 spot is South Dakota (11-9, 5-1 SL) who will match up with third-seeded North Dakota (10-12, 3-3 SL) at 12 p.m. CT Friday. The Fighting Hawks took the No. 3 seed after defeating St. Thomas, 5-2, today in the last regular season match of the year for UND.

With North Dakota, Oral Roberts and Omaha all boasting a 3-3 League mark, the final two spots came down to the three-team tiebreaker and the third tiebreaker criteria, which is the point differential (maximum four for winning team) for league matches only between the teams involved in the tie.
 
North Dakota earned the No. 3 seed with a +1 differential against Omaha (+4) and Oral Roberts (-3). The Golden Eagles received the No. 4 slot with a zero differential against North Dakota (+3) and Omaha (-3). The Mavericks were eliminated from postseason contention as they earned a -1 differential against Oral Roberts (+3) and North Dakota (-4).
 
The 2024 Summit League Women's Tennis Championship will be hosted April 19-20 at Waukee Northwest High School Tennis Complex in Waukee, Iowa. This is the first time in league history that Drake will host the tennis championships.
 
The championship match is set for Saturday, April 20 at 10 a.m. CT with the winner advancing to the NCAA tournament to represent The Summit League as the automatic qualifier. All matches from the championship will be streamed on the Summit League Network.
 
Schedules and locations are subject to change in the case of inclement weather.
