🔼 Let The Show Begin. Now, the real show begins for the Baylor tennis squads… the NCAA Regionals.

Kicking off the action will be the women’s team, who hit the courts in Austin for a showdown with the Broncos of Boise State. First serve is set for 10 am.

The men’s squad opens up regional play on Saturday when they battle Nebraska in the first round in College Station. First serve is set for 10 a.m.

🎾 Previewing The Women’s Matchup

🎾 Champions’ Tribune: Marko Miladinovic

🔼 Twice As Nice. For the second time this year, Nathaniel Ezekiel was named Big 12 Athlete of the Week.
 
The honor comes after Ezekiel's big weekend in Orlando at the UCF Knights Invite. In his outdoor season-debut in the 400m, Ezekiel put up one of the nation-leading marks in the 400m at 44.75, a new personal best.
 
Ezekiel's mark now puts him tied for ninth in Baylor's historic Quarter-Mile U program marks. The Nigerian is the first Bear to crack the top-10 program marks since Wil London in 2017.
 
The senior's mark ranks first in the Big 12, second in the NCAA and 14^th in the World for the 2025 season.

🔼 Movin’ On Up. The dream is now one step closer for former Baylor standout Jared McKenzie.

A fifth-round pick in 2022, McKenzie was called up to Double-A Harrisburg in the Washington Nationals organization this week after bashing 15 HRs and racking up 91 RBIs in his first three-plus pro seasons.
