PHILADELPHIA – The University of Pennsylvania men's tennis team will begin the 2026 spring season against Navy in a double header at the Hamlin Tennis Center on Sunday, Jan. 18. The Quakers look to follow up a successful 2024-25 campaign as they tied with Princeton for the most wins in the Ivy League (21). The team also ranked as high as No. 28 in the ITA national team rankings last year. This will be Head Coach Rich Bonfligio's fourth year at the helm of the program.
