KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Goshen's Uliana Dotsenko was named to the 2026 UTR NAIA Women's Tennis All-America Third Team by the NAIA All-America Selection Committee last Thursday. Only 50 NAIA women's tennis players earned a spot on one of the teams.

Dotsenko, a sophomore, was one of 15 underclassmen to be selected. Playing primarily at the top of the lineup in #2 doubles and #1 singles, Dotsenko posted a 12-7 doubles record and a 13-14 mark in singles. She was selected First Team All-Crossroads League and was twice the Crossroads League Women's Tennis Player of the Week this past season.

Her 13 wins at #1 singles this year is tied for the second-most in a season in program history for a Maple Leaf at that position. When paired with Marin Kawano at #2 doubles this season, the duo had nine wins - tied for fourth-most at that position.

The Maple Leafs finished 16-8 and went 8-1 in conference play in the regular season. They advanced to the Crossroads League Championship and competed in the NAIA National Championships for the first time in program history. They won their first round matchup against Holy Cross College in a thrilling contest and advanced to be one of the final 16 teams by playing in the second round. The Leafs ended the season ranked #13 in the ITA NAIA Team Rankings.
