Women's Tennis No. 13 in ITA Preseason Rankings, Picked third in Big 12 Poll
January 03, 2024 | Women's Tennis
NORMAN - The Oklahoma women's tennis team enters the 2024 season at No. 13 in the ITA Preseason Rankings, the association announced Wednesday.
After coming off a 2023 season that saw them earn their 13th NCAA tournament appearance, the Sooners will hit the court with their second consecutive top-15 ITA preseason ranking.
The 2024 team features four returners from the 2023 season and seven newcomers: Some familiar faces include: Big-12 All-Freshman Julia Garcia Ruiz, All-Big 12 honoree Dana Guzman, CSC Academic All-District honoree Emma Staker and her doubles partner Romana Cisovska. The Sooners added transfers Florencia Urrutia (Kentucky), Ava Catanzarite (UCLA) and Alina Shcherbinina (Baylor) over the summer and freshmen Zdena Safarova and Samantha Fulnecky. Newcomers Roisin Gilheany and Chloe Noel will also join the team in the spring.
OU also checked in at No. 3 in the preseason Big 12 poll, the conference announced Wednesday. The Sooners earn their placements after a successful 2023 season by coming off a trip to the NCAA Super Regionals. The team collected 22 wins, two of them against top-10 teams and six over top-25's, reached the ITA National Indoor Championship for the second time in program history, and claimed a share of the Big 12 regular season title for back-to-back years.
The squad opens the 2024 season on Friday, Jan. 12, hosting a doubleheader against Wichita State and Wyoming.
