ITA Regional Championship On Tap For Women's Tennis

INDIANAPOLIS, IN – The UIndy women's tennis team is set to compete in the ITA Midwest Regional Championship this weekend, with matches beginning this Saturday, Oct. 4, in Grand Rapids, Mich. 

The Greyhounds head into the event with a longstanding tradition of success in this event, capturing a Regional Championship in either singles or doubles for ten consecutive seasons. 

UIndy commenced their season with the UIndy Fall Tournament, an individual-based, hidden dual format against crosstown opponents Butler, IU Indianapolis, and Marian. 

The Hounds return five players from the team last season, while welcoming six newcomers. 

Headlining the returners are 2025 All-GLVC First Teamers Jimena De Pablos Hernando and Sofia Cardenas. De Pablos Hernando amassed a strong 14-1 clip in singles, with an 11-5 record in doubles. Cardenas collected an 8-3 mark in singles, and a 8-6 record in doubles. Cardenas and De Pablos Hernando went 3-0 as a doubles team at the season opener just two weeks ago.

Newcomers that stood out from the Fall Tournament were Liza Simak and Magda Kornijczuk. Simak posted a 3-0 mark in singles play, while Kornijczuk held a 2-1 record in both singles and doubles. 

The first slate of singles matches on Saturday will begin at 8 AM on the campus of Davenport University.
