Noting Perry and the Buckeyes at the NCAA Championships

Perry won the ITA Midwest Regional singles title in October, the first regional singles title in school history, to secure her NCAA singles berth.
This is her second straight trip to the national tournament. She is the sixth Buckeye to qualify for the NCAA Singles Championship multiple times and the fourth to earn a berth as a freshman and as a sophomore (Kristy Dascoli, Francesca Di Lorenzo, Sydni Ratliff).
Last year, she reached the Round of 16 at the NCAA Championships to earn All-America honors. She was the only freshman to win two matches in the 2024 tournament.
She is 11-3 in singles this fall, with a 7-3 mark vs. ranked opponents.
Perry started the fall ranked 23rd in singles and was fourth in doubles with Ratliff.
Perry was the 2024 ITA National Rookie of the Year and the Midwest Region Rookie of the Year. She earned 2024 Big Ten Freshman of the Year, All-Big Ten and Big Ten All-Tournament Team accolades and was named to the 2024 USTA Collegiate Summer Team. Last season, she was an NCAA qualifier in doubles as well (with two partners).
