Tennis Buffs Set to Begin Big 12 Play
February 25, 2026 | Tennis
BOULDER – Following a weekend sweep, the Colorado Buffaloes tennis team is ready to open Big 12 play on the road, starting with a trip to the Midwest to take on Iowa State and Kansas.
Â
This past weekend, Colorado went 3-0, defeating UNLV, Gonzaga, and Utah Tech, outscoring its opponents 17-4.
Â
"One of our biggest strengths this year is our depth," said head coach Anthony Pham. "We feel really confident with whoever we put in the lineup."
Â
This week, the Buffs will start up conference competition, heading to Iowa State on Friday, followed by a trip to Kansas on Sunday. Â
Â
"The Big 12 is really competitive," Pham said. "We know every team is good, whether they're ranked or not, and Iowa State and Kansas are both very good teams."
Â
The Cyclones started their season 2-4, picking up back-to-back wins against St. Thomas and UNLV. The Buffs are 29-6 in their series record against Iowa State, and the series ended on a high note for Colorado last season.
Â
The Buffs faced the Cyclones twice in 2025, starting with a 4-3 loss in regular season play last February. In the Buffs' first trip to the Big 12 Championship since 2011, Colorado found a first-round upset over the Cyclones, 4-2, to advance to the second round.
Â
On Sunday, Colorado will head to Lawrence to face Kansas for the 47th time in series history. The Jayhawks sit at 4-5 and will face Texas Tech on Friday to find a tie record before they meet the Buffs.
Â
Kansas holds a 28-18 record over the Buffs, and the last meeting ended in the Jayhawks' favor with a 4-2 win last March. Colorado will look to break their two-match loss streak, with their last win being in 2015 at home, finishing 4-2 over Kansas.
Â
"We're in a good place," Pham said. "The team is competing really well and fighting like crazy, and that's something we want to continue going into this weekend."
Â
Friday's match against Iowa State will begin at 3 p.m. (MT) at the Iowa State Tennis Facility. On Sunday, the Buffs begin play at 1 p.m. against Kansas at the Jayhawk Tennis Center. More information and live results can be found @cubuffstennis.
