Jason Potthoff looks to start his fourth spring season strong after a 15-7 record last year.
The Belles return one of the top-ranked players in the nation. Sophomore
Margaux Rene from Soisy-Sur-Siene, France, is currently ranked seventh in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association preseason poll.
Rene is coming off a season in which she won Freshman of the Year in the Lone Star Conference after recording a 17-5 record, the best on the team.
The new doubles pairing of
Sasa Felixova and Rene is ranked 22nd in the ITA Tennis Association ranking.
The Belles return two players from last year's roster, Sophomores
Benedetta Raggiotti and
Margaux Rene. Raggiotti was 14-7 in singles play last year.
The Belles bring five freshmen and one sophomore into the fold:

At the New Mexico invite, the last team event of the fall schedule in October, the Belles recorded 12 victories in singles play. The Rambelles recorded four wins in doubles during their last team contest of 2025.
The Belles start their spring season against Weatherford for the first time in program history, and it will be the first matchup between the two teams.
