Web Release Link

The USA South Athletic Conference's women's tennis coaches have released their 2022 preseason polls. Each divisional preseason poll only includes votes from coaches within that particular division-only. Head coaches do not vote for their own teams in the balloting. A new addition to the sport of women's tennis within the Conference will be Southern Virginia who enters the League for its first year of membership.

In the East Division, three-time defending Conference Tournament champions, N.C. Wesleyan, sits atop the rankings while in the West, Piedmont is tabbed as the favorite and will look to capture a divisional crown for the fourth consecutive season.

The 2022 USA South Women's Tournament will being with play-in matches on campus sites before heading to Rome, Georgia and the Rome Tennis Center at Berry College for the remainder of the event. The top-five seeded teams from each division will advance to postseason play.
