Mizzou tennis released its schedule for the 2027 spring season Monday.
Its campaign begins Jan. 17, as the Tigers travel to University Park, Texas. They will face UT-Arlington and SMU on consecutive days.
Millie Skelton, a standout from Mizzou's fall opener, transferred in from SMU this offseason.
The Tigers' first home match of the spring season will be Jan. 25 as they host South Dakota.
MU opens Southeastern Conference play Feb. 28 at home against Vanderbilt. Other than a March 19 home match versus Illinois State, the remainder of Mizzou's games will be against SEC foes.
All eyes are on March 21, when Tennessee comes to Columbia. Newly hired MU coach Robin Goodman left the Volunteers in May to join the Tigers.
"I think any time you transition to a new situation, it always comes with a new set of challenges," Goodman said. "The excitement about what we can do in this program was something that kept me going throughout the whole process."
The spring season wraps up with a home match against LSU on April 28.
Still in the fall portion of competition, Mizzou most recently wrapped up an individual tournament in Lincoln, Nebraska. It competed against multiple teams in a round-robin format from Friday to Sunday and came back to Columbia having won 10 of 18 matches.
Skelton and Evelyn Whiteside won every singles match they played. As a doubles team, the two were a perfect 3-0.
Next up for the Tigers in the fall is the Charlotte Invite, which starts Friday and ends Sunday.
