2026 Fall Preview: Girls Tennis

OZARK TIGERS

Ozark | 8/31/2026

Ozark girls tennis enters the season with a strong group of experienced players and a new leader at the helm. This fall marks the first season under head coach Caroline Farouki.

The Lady Tigers return 15 seniors, with most of them having been part of the program for all four years. That experience has helped create a strong team culture heading into the season.

“Girls tennis is looking forward to another great season! We have a strong roster with 15 seniors, most of whom are four-year players,” Farouki said. “The seniors have done an amazing job fostering a culture of positivity, encouragement and perseverance.”

Farouki hopes that senior leadership will continue to make an impact on the program well beyond this season.

“I expect this precedent will set the tone for many seasons to come as the underclassmen follow in their footsteps,” Farouki said.

Leading the way this year will be senior co-captains SarahBella Weathers and Madison Toynton.
“These girls have led the charge in promoting teamwork and building camaraderie between new and returning players,” Farouki said.

With an experienced senior class and a new head coach leading the program, the Lady Tigers are looking forward to building on their strong team culture and making the most of the season ahead.
