Eagles Men's Tennis Preview

After a season that saw then return to the NACC Tournament in 2024, Edgewood College Men's Tennis looks to build on their momentum in 2025 with a mix of returning players and fresh faces. 

“I'm very confident that our five returners will continue to lead the team in the right direction,” said head coach Kevin Friend. “I think we are prepared to take the next step, win more matches and keep climbing the NACC standings.”

2025 Men's Tennis Schedule

Men's Tennis will open up their 2025 slate with the Dubuque Spartans and the Crown Polars at the Powless Tennis Center Saturday. They'll travel to Orlando, Fla. for a Spring Break trip from March 17-20. After returning to Wisconsin, they'll kick off NACC action at MSOE on Thursday, March 27. They'll open up Quann Park for the year with a NACC doubleheader against Concordia Chicago and St. Norbert on Saturday, March 29.

They'll finish their conference slate on the road, including a trip to defending champion Illinois Tech on Saturday, April 12 and a rematch of their NACC Tournament First Round bout with Concordia Wisconsin on Sunday, April 13. They'll look to return to the NACC Tournament with the First Round kicking off on Monday, April 28.

“I am very excited for the men's team to start playing matches starting on February 1," said Friend. "It's always a long fall semester for the guys as they don't get nearly the amount of competition compared to the women's team, so I know they are ready to start competing.”
