Tennis at Jackson State

Jackson State’s women went a perfect 8-0 in SWAC regular-season play in 2026 and earned the No. 1 seed for the postseason tournament. Jackson State won three of the SWAC’s 2026 women’s tennis awards: Coach of the Year (head coach Stas Smirnov, in his first season), Player of the Year (Paula Corbalan) and Newcomer of the Year (Victoria Linkovski).

Since July 1, 2025, Division I rules no longer have sport-specific scholarship limits. Schools in the defendant conferences and schools that opt in work under roster limits instead, and may offer scholarships (full or partial) to any or all athletes on the roster.

Frequently asked questions

Is Jackson State NCAA Division I?

Yes. Jackson State University competes in NCAA Division I in the SWAC.

Does Jackson State offer tennis scholarships?

NCAA Division I rules allow athletic scholarships for tennis. Whether Jackson State offers you one, and how much, depends on the player and the university. Since July 1, 2025, Division I rules no longer have sport-specific scholarship limits. Schools in the defendant conferences and schools that opt in work under roster limits instead, and may offer scholarships (full or partial) to any or all athletes on the roster. (Source: NCAA.org – DI Board of Directors formally adopts changes to roster limits (June 23, 2025)) Division I schools that did not opt in are not bound by the settlement roster limits, and the NCAA Manual no longer sets their scholarship limits. However, if they give more aid than their sport's 2024-25 limit (men's tennis 4.5 equivalencies; women's tennis the value of 8 full scholarships), they become subject to the settlement, including roster limits. The old head-count rule no longer applies. (Source: Q&A: Implementation of the House Settlement (NCAA and defendant conferences; updated February 11, 2026))
