ITA Division I Men’s Collegiate Tennis Preseason Team Rankings – January 7
The Intercollegiate Tennis Association (“ITA”) has released today the Division I Men’s Preseason Top 25 Coaches Poll for January 7, 2026. As the first Division I Team Ranking of the year, the past seven ITA Preseason No. 1 ranked teams have included, Texas (2025), Virginia (2023, 2024), Florida (2020, 2022), USC (2021), and Wake Forest (2019).
To start the 2026 college tennis season, defending NCAA and ITA Team Indoor National Champions Wake Forest will remain atop of the pack as they look to be the first team since Virginia (2022, 2023) to win back-to-back NCAA National Championships. With players such as Stefan Dostanic, Ioannis Xilas, and Franco Capalbo all departing after last season, the Demon Deacons have reloaded once again bringing in Mees Rottgering (4.26 WTN), Aryan Shah (3.85 WTN), and Kacper Szymkowiak (6.82 WTN) who will all likely make an impact this season.

The first coaches poll of the 2026 dual match season is less significant than ever after the ITA changed its ranking procedure for 2026. These rankings used to be a starting point for the computer rankings later in the season, but they no longer serve that purpose, with a new system in place that puts all teams on the same level when results are calculated.
Yet for college tennis fans, there is still some value in this inconsequential exercise, with the top 25 teams all touting their rankings on social media today to help kickoff the season, and the chance to see what the 13 ranking committee members think of the prospects for last year's top teams.
