TALLAHASSEE - The No. 19 Florida State men's tennis team has been selected to the NCAA Division I Men's Tennis Championship for the 26th time in the program's history. The Seminoles will travel to Columbia, South Carolina, for the first and second rounds of the tournament.

FSU will play in the Columbia Regional with No. 13 South Carolina, Samford, and VCU beginning on Friday, May 2. Florida State will meet Southern Conference champion Samford in the first round, while South Carolina will square off against Atlantic 10 champion VCU. The winners of the Friday matches will meet on Saturday to advance to the Third Round.

Florida State finished the regular season with an 18-8 record, marking four straight seasons with 15+ wins. The Seminoles accumulated nine wins in the expanded conference schedule and achieved a perfect 7-0 record at home in ACC play. FSU defeated Louisville 4-3 in the second round of the ACC Championship before falling 4-3 to eventual champion, No. 5 Stanford. 

Head coach Dwayne Hultquist has led the Seminoles to their 21st appearance in the tournament in the past 22 completed seasons. Last season, FSU reached the Third Round after a first round sweep over North Florida and 4-1 win at home against UCF. The Seminoles have reached the second round in six consecutive seasons and advanced to the third round of play in two of the last three seasons.

Live video and stats from the championship will be available on Seminoles.com.
