FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (April 30, 2026) - The Northern Arizona men's tennis team is heading to Tucson, Ariz. for the first round of the NCAA Championships with a matchup against the Arizona Wildcats. First serve is at 1 p.m. MST and can be streamed on CrackedRacquets.
The matchup will mark the Lumberjacks' first appearance at the NCAA tournament since 2021, when they lost 4-0 to the Texas Longhorns. Now with an undefeated season in the Big Sky and a strong non-conference that includes wins over Gardner-Webb and Air Force, NAU returns looking to earn its first win in the Big Dance.
Having earned the No. 8 seed in the tournament, Arizona enters this matchup coming off of an undefeated stretch in conference play in the Big 12 and a championship appearance in the Big 12 Final. The Wildcats have only lost once at home this spring, against the LSU Tigers on Jan. 24 in a 4-3 decision.
