With a win this weekend, Kuearum would pass her most wins at a singles spot during the dual season with six singles wins.

Cyclone Tennis Quick Hit
This match against Kansas will mark the first dual match for Jaron Maestas against his former school. Maestas had been the associate head coach at Kansas for the past two seasons, taking them to back-to-back NCAA tournament bids before taking over the Cyclones in 2023. Maestas will look to score a win against the Jayhawks in his first season as Iowa State's head coach.
