LSU Women’s Tennis Opens Dual Season at Home With Northwestern State, San Diego

No. 5 Tigers Begin 2026 Campaign After Elite Eight Run, Welcome Two Nonconference Matchups in Baton Rouge


BATON ROUGE, La. |
The LSU Tigers are set to launch their 2026 dual-match season at home this weekend, welcoming Northwestern State Demons and San Diego Toreros to the LSU Tennis Complex in a two-match opening homestand.

LSU will face Northwestern State on Saturday, Jan. 17, at 1:00 p.m. CT, before hosting San Diego on Monday, Jan. 19, at noon CT, as the Tigers begin the year with one of the most anticipated seasons in program history.

Fresh off the release of the ITA preseason rankings, LSU opens the spring ranked No. 5 nationally, the highest preseason ranking the program has ever earned. The Tigers are coming off a landmark 2025 campaign that included a 24–8 overall record and the program’s first-ever NCAA Elite Eight appearance.

Momentum Builds Under Taylor Fogleman

Now in his fourth season, head coach Taylor Fogleman has guided LSU to three consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances and a school-record 10 SEC regular-season victories last spring. The Tigers enter 2026 aiming to turn last season’s breakthrough into sustained national contention.

LSU’s home court has been a major advantage under Fogleman. The Tigers finished 11–2 at home last season and captured the crucial doubles point in 21 matches, setting the tone early in dual competition.
