At a Glance
The Royals return to the court after an 11–10 overall record and a 7–2 mark in Landmark play during the 2024–25 season. Scranton captured its first conference title since 2018 with a 4–2 victory over top-seeded Moravian in the 2025 Landmark Championship.
Scranton will be led by Erin O'Mara and Gisele Falzone, who return to anchor the lineup. O'Mara earned Second Team All-Conference honors in doubles, while Falzone was named Landmark Championship MVP. Freshman Sarah Crawford also had an outstanding fall season for the Royals, emerging as a key contributor.
The Royals will need to replace top performers from last season, including Mayjah Jean-Pierre, a First Team All-Conference selection at No. 1 singles, and Daniella Wisniewski, a Second Team All-Conference honoree in doubles, both of whom graduated in 2025. Despite these losses, Scranton enters the season ranked second in the 2026 preseason coaches poll.
