The NC State women's tennis team achieved a historic milestone by winning the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) title on April 20, 2026, marking only the second time in 44 years that the program has secured this championship. Under the leadership of head coach Simon Earnshaw, who took over in 2015, the team has seen remarkable improvement, finishing in the top three of the ACC consistently since 2018. Prior to Earnshaw's tenure, NC State had only one top-three finish in its history. This season, the team is poised for its 10th straight NCAA tournament appearance, further solidifying its place among the nation's elite tennis programs. The victory is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the players and coaching staff, celebrating a significant achievement for NC State athletics.
