ANNAPOLIS, Md. – Wrapping up her final season in a record-setting career, recent Navy women's tennis graduate
Emily Tannenbaum was named the Atlantic region's No. 20 singles player in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association's 2024-25 Year-End Regional Rankings on Wednesday.
This marks Tannenbaum's third-straight year appearing in the ITA's end-of-season regional rankings, slotting in at No. 19 in 2022-23 and No. 12 following the 2023-24 campaign.
The 2025 Patriot League Player of the Year and one-half of the 2025 Patriot League Doubles Team of the Year alongside
Olivia Fermo, Tannenbaum continued to rewrite the program's record book in her final season while compiling a 33-8 singles mark and 27-8 doubles record, including going 18-4 in the No. 1 singles spot during spring dual matches.
Holding a total of nine program records, the 33 overall wins and 18 dual-meet victories in singles action this year both matched Tannenbaum's previous single-season program records, while the 27 doubles wins set a new program single-season record. Additionally, the 2024-25 season saw Tannenbaum set the program's career records for singles wins, doubles wins, combined wins and career No. 1 doubles victories.
After breaking the Navy records for career wins in both singles and doubles play earlier in the fall, Tannenbaum then pulled double-duty by winning the Patriot League's automatic singles berth in the ITA Conference Masters Championship and partnering with fellow senior
Parvathi Shanker to claim the league's doubles qualification for the same ITA championship event, with Tannenbaum and the Shanker then advancing to within two wins of the NCAA Tournament at the ITA's newest event.
The senior then posted a combined 10-1 mark in Patriot League regular-season matches, going a perfect 6-0 in league singles play, and tallied a 12-match singles winning streak that matched the third-longest win streak in program history and fell one match shy of tying her own career-long singles winning streak from last season.
A four-time All-Patriot League First Team selection and a driving force behind Navy's 2024 Patriot League Tournament title, Tannenbaum also earned the league's rookie-of-the-year honors in 2021-22 and took home her first Patriot League Player of the Year award in 2022-23.
