STANFORD, Calif. - Stanford (18-3, 9-0 Pac-12) will be making its 37th consecutive postseason appearance when first round competition gets underway at campus sites next weekend.

The Cardinal, seeded No. 15 overall in the postseason draw, hosts St. Johns (17-5, 4-1 BIG EAST) at 2 p.m. on Friday, May 11, in its NCAA Tournament opener. Michigan (17-9, 10-1 Big Ten) will face Hawai'i (12-6, 6-2 Big West) at 11 a.m. in the day's opening match. The winners meet in the second round on Saturday at 4 p.m.

Taube Family Tennis Stadium will play host to NCAA first and second round competition on May 11-13, also serving as a host site on the men's side. All seats are general admission. Single-day tickets are $8 (adult) and $5 (student/youth/senior). Tickets will go sale Wednesday, May 2, at 9 a.m. PT. The box office will open 30 minutes before the first event on each day.

The most storied program in college tennis with 19 national championships (18 NCAA, 1 AIAW), Stanford enters the postseason riding a 14-match winning streak as one of the hottest teams in the country. The Cardinal defeated UCLA 4-2 last weekend in the Pac-12 Championships final, repeating as tournament champions. Stanford has also won three straight conference titles overall, accomplishing the feat for the first time since 2010-12.

Stanford owns a 147-19 all-time record in the postseason since the NCAA Tournament went to its present format in 1982. Stanford must be considered a national championship contender regardless of seed, having incredibly won 16 of its last 19 NCAA matches when seeded lower than its opponent. In 2016, No. 15 Stanford became the lowest-seeded team to win an NCAA title, knocking off No. 2 Florida, No. 10 Michigan and No. 6 Vanderbilt in a span of five days prior to reaching the final. That includes winning it all as a No. 12 seed five years ago – at the time the lowest-seeded team to accomplish the feat – and taking home the crown in 2010 as a No. 8 seed.

All first and second round matches are played at campus sites. The final 16 teams square off at the NCAA Tennis Championships in Winston-Salem, N.C., beginning Thursday, May 17. The national championship matches are set for Tuesday, May 22.
