Last Season: A Region-Topping Season
Last season’s story ended at the top of the region. Alex Razeghi posted a team-leading 21-4 singles record in the 2025-26 season review, earned All-ACC Second Team honors in both singles and doubles, and finished the season ranked No. 1 in the Northwest Region in both singles and doubles — the region’s best player, by the rankings’ own measure. Beside him, Alex Chang recorded 10 singles wins with 3 match clinches in 2025-26 reporting, earned All-ACC Second Team doubles honors, and was ranked as high as No. 41 in singles and No. 6 in doubles.
Nico Godsick added an ITA preseason No. 86 singles mark in 2025-26 and a doubles pair with Hudson Rivera ranked No. 16 preseason. No team standings are claimed here that the sources do not support — but the individual record is the story: a region No. 1, a three-time clincher, and a top-20 doubles pair in one lineup.
Best Players Right Now
Alex Razeghi, Program Star — The region’s No. 1. Razeghi’s team-leading 21-4 singles record in 2025-26, All-ACC Second Team honors in singles and doubles, and No. 1 Northwest Region rankings in both disciplines make him the headline act of this team.
Alex Chang, Singles and Doubles Leader — The clincher. Chang’s 10 singles wins and 3 match clinches in 2025-26 reporting, All-ACC Second Team doubles honors, and rankings as high as No. 41 in singles and No. 6 in doubles mark him as the player who delivers when the dual is on the line.
Nico Godsick, Singles and Doubles Star — The doubles weapon. Godsick’s ITA preseason No. 86 singles mark in 2025-26 and his No. 16 preseason doubles pair with Hudson Rivera give the Cardinal a second doubles threat to go with Chang’s.
Star Spotlight: Stories You Should Know
Region No. 1, both disciplines. Finishing a season ranked No. 1 in your region in singles is a career achievement. Doing it in doubles too — as Razeghi did in the Northwest Region — is rarer still. That is the standard the Cardinal carry into 2026-27.
Three clinches tell the story. Chang’s 3 match clinches in 2025-26 are the stat that matters most in dual matches: three times the match was on his court, and three times he won it. Teams are built on players like that.
Two doubles threats. Chang ranked as high as No. 6 in doubles; Godsick’s pair with Rivera ranked No. 16 preseason. In a format where the doubles point sets the tone for everything after it, the Cardinal start every dual with an edge.

This Season
This season is about turning a region-topping core into a conference run. The 2026-27 campaign follows the familiar college shape: the fall ITA circuit, where individual honors and NCAA berths are earned, and then the spring dual season, where the ACC race is decided. Razeghi leads from the top of the singles order, Chang delivers the clinches, and Godsick gives the doubles lineup its second weapon. One honest note: Samir Banerjee, an ITA All-American returning in 2025-26, was a close alternate for this trio and was left out only to keep the trio to the three best-documented 2025-26 performers.
Mark Your Calendar: The Road Ahead
Circle the shape of the season ahead, Cardinal fans — the dates themselves are still to come:
No confirmed fixtures have been published at the time of writing. The season runs on the usual college calendar: the fall ITA circuit first, where NCAA individual berths are decided, followed by the spring dual season and the ACC race. When the full schedule is published, this guide will be updated with every Cardinal date.
Biggest Rivalries — The Wars
1. California — the Big Slam, the Bay Area war. Stanford versus California is one of college tennis’s great rivalries, and the Big Slam meeting is the fixture every Cardinal fan circles first. Same bay, same recruiting ground, same standard — no result is claimed here, because this rivalry needs no scoreline to matter.
2. UCLA and USC — the Los Angeles tests. The Bruins and Trojans are the traditional powers of the West, and meetings with the Los Angeles schools are the benchmark of a serious Stanford season. Beating either is a statement; beating both is a season-maker.
3. The ACC field — ranked opponents, week in, week out. Life in the ACC means the schedule never lets up: ranked conference opponents, cross-country road trips and dual matches where every court counts. The Cardinal’s region-topping pedigree was built against exactly this kind of field.
