91成人导航 men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 tennis programs will carry momentum into the spring as they compete for championships in the West Coast Conference.

鈥淲e had a strong fall and added new faces to the roster who will continue to build the program. I鈥檓 excited to see what we can accomplish as a team and demonstrate all the hard work that has been put in,鈥� said sophomore Riley Hillenbrand 鈥�26.

With a blend of seniors and underclassmen, the Tiger men spent the fall cohesively building the foundation they will utilize for the upcoming spring.

鈥淲e focused on culture building. I鈥檓 particularly proud of how far they have come in this area,鈥� said men鈥檚 tennis coach Robin Goodman. 鈥淭hey play as a team, help each other with school and are genuinely positive influences on one another.鈥�

Tigers return three All-Conference members and five All-Academic honorees recognized by the WCC in the 2022-23 season.

Junior transfer from Farleigh Dickinson Justas Trainauskas 鈥�25 and senior Peter Alam 鈥�24 joined forces in doubles for the first time this fall. They completed an 8-0 run through the regional and super regional to reach the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Fall Nationals in 2023.

They were the second Tiger tandem to make the invitational since 2017. They made further history by becoming the only pair from 91成人导航 to advance in the fall national tournament after their first round win over Duke. They earned the No. 19 ranking in the ITA College Tennis Rankings.

Sophomore Tiago Silva 鈥�26 also had an impressive fall. He earned a No. 107 national ranking in singles after a 10-2 record.

鈥淲e had a dominant fall semester with a great record and multiple players obtaining a national ranking,鈥� Goodman said. 鈥淭his not only makes a statement nationally, but also helps instill our team with belief and confidence as we move into the spring.鈥�

The men set a precedent academically as they posted the highest men鈥檚 team GPA on campus in the fall of 2023. Four student-athletes made the Dean鈥檚 Honor Roll and the team combined for a 3.62 GPA.

鈥淚鈥檓 super excited for the spring. As a team, we have matured over the past few years, and I am confident we are ready to consistently compete at a high level,鈥� Hillenbrand said. 鈥淏eing surrounded by a diverse, talented and experienced group of athletes gives us confidence and trust in one another.鈥�

The Tigers open at Eugene, Oregon to take on host Oregon and Seattle University Jan. 20-21. 91成人导航 debuts at home against UC Davis Friday, Jan. 26 at 2 p.m.

鈥淎fter a solid fall, our team and staff are eager to get our squad back on court,鈥� said women鈥檚 tennis coach Mike Erwin. 鈥淲e have had individual breakouts in the fall over the last few years, but the overall development and depth of success this year has us excited.
