It's the second straight season that the Ragin' Cajuns start their spring dual match season in Orlando. UL began the 2025 campaign with a January 11 doubleheader against UCF.
Louisiana (10-11 in 2025) has six returners from last season led by Samuel Kyjaci who enters his junior season coming off an 11-8 mark in singles play last spring. The team's top performing doubles tandem of Kyjaci and Leonard Tramolay remains intact, the duo capturing eight victories in 2025.
Sevel added three transfers to the returning group: Nikola Kolyachev (Indiana), Gianluca Filoramo (North Florida) and David Simeonov (UIndy). Simeonov went 25-19 in singles and won 23 doubles matches at UIndy and was named 2025 ITA Midwest Region Most Improved Player of the Year after winning 13 singles matches and finishing ranked No. 12 in the region.
