Women’s tennis breaks program record in historic run

Shocker women’s tennis broke the program record win streak following a win against UAB in the quarterfinals of the American Conference Championship and increased its streak to a total of 19 wins in a row after defeating Tulsa in the semifinals.

The team finished the regular season with a 17-match win streak, tying the program record set in 2016, and was ranked No. 28 in the ITA rankings, which earned the team a No. 1 seed for the American Conference Championship and a first-round bye. The team also recorded a perfect 9-0 at home this season.

The Shockers’ run ended in the finals against Rice and the team now awaits a bid for the NCAA Tennis Tournament May 1.
