• FOR THE RECORD: The Cardinals are coming off a 4-8 season in 2021, including a 2-6 MIAC record.
• HOME SWEET HOME: All four of the Cardinals' wins in 2021 came on their home courts — defeating Loras (7-2), Wartburg (6-3), Hamline (6-3), and Concordia (9-0).
• REVOLVING DOOR: Saint Mary's used six different combinations at No. 3 doubles, combining for a 5-7 record.
• TEAM LEADER: Trevor Smiley (Minnetonka, Minn.) closed out the year with a team-leading seven singles wins — six of which came during the junior's career-high six-match singles winning streak.

• STREAK-SNAPPER: The Cardinals' 5-4 loss to Northwestern on April 2 snapped the Cardinals' 13-match winning streak against the Eagles.
• TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS: With their wins over Loras and Wartburg, and loss to Northwestern, the Cardinals are now 67-25 in nonconference matches since 2012.
