The Knights never dropped out of the top 15 all spring and peaked at a program-record No. 8 on February 19. UCF made its second straight Sweet 16 appearance before falling to top-seeded Wake Forest. Senior captain Yassine Dlimi finished ranked No. 66 individually, while the doubles tandem of Mehdi Benchakroun and Wissam Abderrahman cracked the rankings at No. 83 to close the year.

🔼 In The Rankings. UCF women's tennis closed the season ranked No. 20 nationally in the final ITA rankings after a 21-5 campaign that included a second straight Big 12 regular-season title. Senior Jantje Tilbuerger finished individually ranked No. 122, capping a stellar year that saw her go 17-2 in dual matches with a perfect 10-0 mark on court two and six match-clinching wins. The NCAA Tournament berth was the program's 11th overall and seventh under head coach Bryan Koniecko.
