Despite turbulent weather and chaotic travel, the Bruins went 2-for-2 this weekend to close out the regular season.

Unfamiliar stadiums have become the new familiar for the Bruins in their inaugural Big Ten season.
This weekend’s Midwest trip was the latest test.
But the Bruins barely flinched, packing up a clean sweep before jetting home to Westwood.

The Bruins haven’t left the West Coast since early February.
But No. 24 UCLA women’s tennis (7-6, 2-2 Big Ten) will trade the Los Angeles Tennis Center’s open Southern California environment for the indoor Ty Tucker Tennis Stadium on Friday as it faces No.

Traveling halfway across the country and playing on indoor courts didn’t slow down the Bruins this weekend.
UCLA men’s tennis (6-6, 4-0 Big Ten) responded to the four-match skid that ended nonconference play with a four-match winning streak to open its Big Ten slate, defeating No.

After spending last weekend on the beach, the Bruins spent this one cruising to victory.
In its second consecutive sweep to open Big Ten play, UCLA men’s tennis (4-6, 2-0 Big Ten) trounced Purdue (8-3, 0-1) by a score of 7-0 on Sunday at the Los Angeles Tennis Center.

Weekend getaways to the beach don’t usually culminate in championships.
That is, unless it’s the Bruins.
In a break from its dual-match campaign, UCLA men’s tennis participated in the 136th annual Pacific Coast Men’s Doubles Championship tournament at the La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club from Friday to Sunday.

The worst start in the Billy Martin era continues.
And the Bruins’ recent results have UCLA’s longest-active head coach searching for answers.
“In my 42 years, I don’t think I’ve lost three matches in a row, much less four matches in a row,” Martin, who’s been a coach in Westwood since 1984 and head honcho since 1994, said.

The Bruins commenced this season with a primary focus: winning a national championship.
But amid a slew of illnesses, they have yet to achieve the consistency they emphasized before the dual-match season.

Missing a star player in any game, let alone in a rivalry matchup, is almost guaranteed to trigger struggles.
But not for the Bruins.
Shorthanded No.

Coach Billy Martin opted to insert a pair of upperclassmen into his lineup Saturday – each of whom made their 2025 debuts.
