Women’s Tennis’ Rachel Kyzyak Earns Milestone 50th Career Singles Win

2/24/2025 | Women's Tennis

OXFORD, Miss. – Ole Miss women's tennis senior Rachel Krzyzak earned her 50th career singles victory on Feb. 23 in Baton Rouge, La., as the Rebels took on No. 8 LSU.

She joined Lucie Petruzelova as the two active Rebels to hit the half century mark for wins in their career. Krzyzak, who has won all her matches for Ole Miss, is 4-0 to begin the dual season after defeating LSU's Gaby Rivera. She primarily alternates between the fourth and fifth slot in singles, going 1-0 record on No. 4 and 3-0 on No. 5. In her final season with the Rebels, Krzyzak added a trio of wins in the fall season and reached the quarterfinal round of the ITA Southern Regional in doubles with Emma Kette.
 
In her first year as a Rebel, Krzyzak earned an 18-11 overall record in singles and a 15-15 record in doubles. She earned a 7-5 singles record in SEC matches with one ranked doubles victory. She competed primarily on the fourth court in singles and split time at No. 1 and No. 3 in doubles.
 
Sophomore year, Krzyzak appeared in all 13 conference matches after missing the first eight nonconference matches due to injury. By the end of the season, she had added seven wins to her career singles record. Krzyzak had an impressive run at the SEC Championship, going 2-1 in singles. Krzyzak clinched Ole Miss' first round sweep over Missouri with a straight set win.

Krzyzak's momentum culminated in her leading the team in singles victories during her junior year. She notched 18 wins on the season, while going 10-5 in dual matches. In the 2023-24 season, she picked up victories on four different courts, with her finding most success on courts four and six. She tallied four wins on both courts. One of her most notable victories came during Ole Miss' victory over No. 21 Alabama with a 6-4, 6-4, victory on court six in singles.

Kryzyzak has spent her entire collegiate tenure with Ole Miss. The Ontario, Canada, native has earned numerous accolades throughout her time in Oxford, including being named to the SEC First Year Honor Roll in 2022, and SEC Spring Academic Honor Roll in 2023 and 2024.

Krzyzak looks to maintain her undefeated record on Friday, Feb. 28, at 3 p.m. as Ole Miss hosts Tennessee.
