2026 NCAA Division I Singles & Doubles Championship Field Now Set

Tempe, AZ – After several months of qualifying play across the ITA Men’s and Women’s All-American Championships, ITA Regional Championships, ITA Conference Masters Championships, and ITA Sectional Championships, the 2026 NCAA Singles & Doubles Championship field is now set as the nation’s top players will converge in Athens, Georgia, from November 17-22 to compete for National Championships.

Featuring 64 of the top men’s and women’s singles players, as well as 32 of the top men’s and women’s doubles teams, the NCAA Singles and Doubles Championships will be played at the historic Dan Magill Tennis Complex on the campus of the University of Georgia, where the NCAA Division I Team Championships will also be played this upcoming spring.

For college tennis fans, many familiar names will be in the mix for a National Championship in Athens, including the likes of Luciana Perry (Ohio State), Keegan Rice (Virginia), Piper Charney (Michigan), Devin Badenhorst (Baylor), Rose Marie Nijkamp (Texas), and Aidan Kim (Ohio State), to name a few.

Across all qualifiers, it is Georgia and Oklahoma who place the most players into the NCAA Women’s Singles Championship, with four each. Meanwhile, Ohio State takes the crown on the men’s side, placing five players in the NCAA Men’s Singles Championship, one more than Georgia and Virginia, who each placed four players in the draw.

This season, we once again see great representation from the Non-Power Four Conferences as nine schools from outside of the Power Four have players in the Women’s Singles field and 11 schools from outside the Power Four have players in the Men’s Singles field. Several athletes made program history this year as the first players in program history to qualify for the NCAA Singles & Doubles Championships from their respective institutions.

Qualifying through the ITA Conference Masters Championships, Terezia Mlkva (Utah State) became the first Utah State player in program history to qualify for the NCAA Singles Championship. The sophomore for the Aggies swept through the Pac-12 qualifier to earn her spot in the Conference Masters Championship, where she won three consecutive matches to claim her spot.

Meanwhile, Jacksonville State had their first-ever NCAA Singles Qualifier, Marko Milosavljevic, who qualified through the ITA Sectional Championships, where he beat players from Alabama, Tennessee, and Auburn to earn his spot in the NCAA Singles Championship.

Draws are set to be announced on Saturday as fans await the star-studded matchups that await in Athens. For a complete list of NCAA Singles & Doubles qualifiers, continue reading below.
