Coming off a 20-18 2023 season, the Bears improved to 28-12 in head coach Casey Cromwell’s second season at WashU. The team clinched a berth in the NCAA regional tournament, which the Bears hosted for the first time in program history, before being eliminated in the regional finals.

On the backs of five athletes finishing in the top 25, the Washington University women’s cross-country team ran away with the NCAA Midwest Regionals by a whopping 38 points.

One set away from capturing their first quarterfinal trip since 2010, the No. 7 Red and Green lost in the regional finals in front of a large crowd at the Field House on Sunday by a final score of 23-25, 25-19, 18-25, 27-25 and 15-12.

In the final event of its abbreviated early season, the Washington University women’s tennis team finished up the fall on a high note. The Bears faced off with players from several different Division III schools and ended the weekend with four singles players in the final 16 and one doubles pairing in the final eight.

As senior Adam Putterman cruised through the field of 128 to claim his second consecutive USTA/ITA Central Regional singles title Monday, he solidified his place as the crown jewel of the Washington University’s men’s tennis program. The Bears competed in a four-day tournament at Wabash University in Indianapolis, Ind.
