North Carolina starts the 2021 season right where the 2020 campaign ended at the top of the Oracle ITA Division I women's tennis rankings. This is the 47th time UNC has been ranked No. 1 by the ITA.
The Tar Heels return their full roster from last season – highlighted by five All-America standouts, including Alexa Graham and Sara Daavettila who are the 2020 and 2019 Oracle ITA National Fall Championships Singles Champions, respectively – along with adding three top freshmen to an already loaded roster of talented tennis players.
