ITA Preseason Rankings

IRVINE, Calif. - The Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) released the Division I Men's National Preseason Rankings Tuesday with two Anteaters making the cut.
 
Senior Noah Zamora sits at No. 122 in the singles rankings. He is the only student-athlete in The Big West to be featured among the top-125 singles players in the nation. Zamora is coming off a 2023-24 campaign in which he finished with a team-best 23-9 overall record (15-4 dual). He went unbeaten in his last 10 matches, which included a 6-0 mark against Big West opponents. Zamora capped that run in the Big West championship match where he defeated UC Santa Barbara's Luka Mrsic in straight sets to help the Anteaters claim their second conference title in three years.
 
Zamora and graduate student Hiroki Sakagawa were also 90th in the preseason doubles rankings. Last year, Zamora posted 12 doubles victories while Sakagawa had 10.
