2026 Scranton Men's Tennis Spring Schedule

At a Glance

The Royals come off a 2024–25 campaign in which they went 5–12 overall and 3–6 in Landmark Conference play, missing the postseason for just the fourth time since the league's inception in 2007–08. Scranton also posted three wins during the fall 2025 slate and now enters the spring 2026 portion with its top returners back in the lineup.

Leading the way are Max Dombrowski and Lucas Kotcho.
