Tennis at UMSL

UMSL’s women won their first Great Lakes Valley Conference championship on May 3, 2026, beating UIndy 4–2 in the final in Greenwood, Indiana, and earned the GLVC’s automatic bid to the NCAA Division II tournament — their fourth NCAA appearance and first since 2018.

Division II uses a partial-scholarship model: coaches may divide a team's athletics aid among several players, and athletics aid can often be combined with academic scholarships and grants. (Source: NCAA.org - Division II Athletics Scholarships) How aid works in each division.
