    Coach's Note

    We are excited to begin another year on the courts!  24-25 was an amazing season.  The men’s tennis team was ranked as high as #17 in the nation and brought home the Coast to Coast Conference Championship!  Off the court the Captains excelled, being honored once again as an ITA All-Academic team and earning another Community Service Award for the Atlantic South Region recognizing their contributions to the local community.

    Looking to the 25-26 season we have a great national schedule in place and we look to continue to make our mark on the national scene.  The support of the Captains Tennis Family has allowed us to create one of the most dynamic programs in the country and we could not do this alone.  We are extremely grateful for all of the support we have received over the years to help our program become the national level program that it is.

    Looking forward, we ask that you consider partnering with us again to help us meet our annual goal of raising $20,000 to support our student-athletes.  Your gifts help to support team travel, equipment, and player services.  Together we can make Christopher Newport University the best place to play Division III tennis in the country.

    Be a part of our community of champions and support CNU Men’s Tennis!

    Go Captains!
