THREE THINGS TO KNOW
- OPENING WIN: The Lopes started the regular season with a 5-2 win over Missouri at home. It was the program's first SEC win in program history and the first Power 5 win since 1990. The Lopes had to comeback after losing the doubles point winning five matches in singles.
 - PUEHSE CLUTCH: Graduate Natasha Puehse returned for a fifth and final season and was the hero in the season opener. Puehse prevailed in three sets at the top singles court winning 6-1, 5-7, 6-3 to clinch the win over the Tigers. Puehse is coming off a stellar 2023 season where she finished 18-3 at the No. 1 singles court.
 - HOME SWEET HOME: The homestand will continue for the Lopes with five more matches in front of the home fans in Phoenix. GCU will host Fresno State in their final match in January before hosting Arkansas on Feb. 8. A double header on Sunday, Feb. 11 will feature Idaho and UC Riverside before the homestand concludes with Cal Poly on Feb. 17.
