Winning won't be the only gauge of improvement for Missouri tennis this season.
For a program undergoing one of the biggest transitions in recent memory, success may be better measured by growth than by the amount of sets won.
Missouri enters the 2026-27 season with a new coaching staff led by Robin Goodman, an entirely rebuilt roster and only one player who has experience wearing Tigers across her chest. That's enough change to reset expectations, even in the ultra-competitive SEC.
The Tigers aren't trying to replace one or two starters. They're building an entire program from the ground up.
That reality makes patience essential.
