In its opening race of the season, Alabama cross country swept both the team and individual titles on Friday morning at the Southern Showcase. Victor Kiprop claimed the men's crown via a 23:25.87 run across the 8K course, while Doris Lemngole (16:03.85) secured the women's 5K title.

Joining Kiprop in the top four of the men's race, were Dennis Kipruto (23:35.64 | third), Hillary Cheruiyot (23:37.60 | fourth), while newcomer Pheline Mining (16:35.49 | second) finished right behind Lemngole in the women's race.

The No. 9-ranked Crimson Tide men needed only 41 points to take the team title, as all five scoring runners for Alabama finished in the top 25. Hudson Hurst (24:14.11 | 11th) and Charlie Rogers (24:33.99 | 22nd) rounded out UA's scoring five in the men's 8k.

The No. 12 UA women concluded the season-opening meet with a 52-point, sweep-securing performance as newcomer Addison Dorenkamp (16:59.47 | ninth), Lilly Walters (17:12.69 | 17th) and Jami Reed (17:18.90 | 26th) rounded out the Tide's scoring five to help secure the team crown.

The Alabama men's tennis team opened the 2024-25 season Friday with a strong start at the SEC Challenge. The Crimson Tide concluded the day with a doubles win in addition to securing the victory in three of four singles matches.

Roan Jones and Andrii Zimnokh went undefeated in their matchup against Mississippi State, downing Radomir Tomic and Michal Novansky in doubles before the UA duo each followed with a singles win against the Bulldog pair. Additionally, Damien Nezar recorded his first win in a UA uniform, topping his singles match against Florida's Bardley Paliska.

Players will compete in pairs throughout the tournament. Each pair will play a total of three matches each round - one doubles and two singles. The duo that wins two of the three matches will advance in the tournament's compass draw format.

The Alabama soccer team (7-2) downed Louisiana Tech (2-3-3) 4-0 in a rainy, Friday night match at the Alabama Soccer Stadium.

The Crimson Tide held a 1-0 lead heading into the half after Melina Rebimbas tallied her first goal of the season and first in a Crimson Tide uniform. Back-to-back goals in the second half from Gianna Paul and Madeline Padelski, respectively, gave UA a 3-0 lead before Nedya Sawan fired a shot into the back of the net for the fourth and final goal of the night.
