BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – WKU Women's Tennis Head Coach Greg Davis announced the signing of Ariadna Fernandez on Thursday.
"Very happy to have Ariadna coming to The Hill this fall," Davis said. "She's spent the last two years in a system very similar to ours which emphasizes high achievement on the court and in the classroom. She plays a high energy game and is a very motivated student-athlete."
Fernandez is a native of Quito, Ecuador, and spent the last two seasons at Arkansas State. She claimed 15 wins over her two seasons with the Red Wolves, including 11 her freshman season.
Fernandez was part of the Ecuadorian Junior National Team and was a finalist of the ITF J60 in Quito. She earned golf in singles and bronze in doubles at the National Pre-Youth Games. Academically, Fernandez graduated with honors and the highest GPA in her class.
Fernandez is the fourth newcomer WKU has signed for the 2025-26 roster. She joins Bradley transfer Andra Sirbu, as well as Barbara Olvera and Virginia Madueño Pita.
