After helping Louisiana Tech register decisive victories over two in-state rivals, Ana Rodrigues was named Conference USA Women’s Tennis Athlete of the Week in an announcement made by the league office on Wednesday.
The senior Bulldog provided the clinching win from the No. 1 position in both triumphs over ULM (6-1) and Northwestern State (4-0) at the LA Tech Tennis Complex.
Versus Mariam Hatem of the Warhawks, Rodrigues cruised to a 6-1, 6-2 victory. Four days later, the Brazil native bested Honoka Umeda of the Lady Demons in another straight sets win, 6-4, 6-2 as LA Tech improved to 9-2 on the spring season and extended their winning streak to eight matches.
This marks the second CUSA weekly honor of the 2025 season for Rodrigues and the third of her collegiate career.
Rodrigues and the Bulldogs head to Houston, Texas this weekend for a pair of matches against UNLV and 59th-ranked Rice at the George R. Brown Tennis Center.
