Florida State’s men’s and women’s tennis teams now know where they will be headed for the NCAA Tournament. The brackets were unveiled on Tuesday and both earned at-large selections after each being bounced by North Carolina in the ACC Tournament quarterfinals last week.

The men’s team will open the NCAA Tournament as the No. 2 seed in the Fort Worth Regional against third-seeded Arkansas on May 12. Joining FSU in the regional will be top seed and No. 6 national seed TCU and Jackson State, the regional’s No. 4 seed.

The FSU women won’t have to travel quite as far as they will go to Auburn as the No. 3 seed. The Seminoles will open the NCAA Tournament by taking on second-seeded Arizona State on May 12. Joining FSU and the Sun Devils will be host and No. 11 national seed Auburn and DePaul, the region’s No. 4 seed.

Both the FSU men’s and women’s teams are currently 16-11 on the season.
