LANCASTER, Pa. -- Swarthmore's Lola Diaz secured Player of the Year honors to lead the 2026 All-Centennial Women's Tennis Team. Haverford's Jolie Zink was named Rookie of the Year while the Swarthmore coaching staff collected Coaching Staff of the Year recognition.
Diaz is the second straight and sixth overall Swarthmore player to win the conference's top player award. Playing at the top spot in both singles and doubles for the CC-champion Garnet, Diaz boasts an 11-11 singles record, including a 9-9 mark in dual matches, and a 5-1 record in the CC regular season. In doubles, Diaz is 13-9 overall, 11-7 in dual matches and 4-1 in the CC.
Zink was named Rookie of the Year, becoming the first Ford to secure the award in its 13 years of existence. Playing exclusively at No. 1 singles and No. 1 doubles throughout the year, Zink posted a 9-8 overall singles mark with a 3-2 record in CC play and a 5-10 doubles mark with a 3-1 record in the CC.
Swarthmore head coach Jeremy Loomis and assistants Alicia Papa and Amanda Frantz were chosen by their peers as Coaching Staff of the Year. The Garnet are 15-6 overall, went a perfect 8-0 in conference play and claimed their second consecutive CC crown.
Eleven players grabbed All-Centennial awards for at least the second time in their careers. Swarthmore led all teams with seven all-stars, followed by Haverford (4), F&M (4), Washington College (3), Dickinson (2), Gettysburg (2) and Bryn Mawr (1).
