Hadley, Mass. — The New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) announced its 2026 Women's Tennis All-Conference awards today, with Colby junior Jade Finestone earning Second Team honors for the second consecutive season.

Finestone's selection to the All-NESCAC Second Team for singles play follows a standout campaign at the top of the Mules' ladder. After earning the same recognition in 2025, she joins an elite group of players in program history to secure back-to-back All-Conference nods in singles.

Competing at the No. 1 singles position throughout the spring, Finestone served as the cornerstone of the Colby lineup while facing many of the top-ranked players in Division III. Her season was highlighted by a signature straight-sets victory over Bates (6-1,6-0) and a dominant win against Connecticut College (6-2,6-2) that helped secure key conference victories for the Mules.

Beyond her individual accolades, Finestone's leadership at the top of the lineup guided Colby to seven wins this season. Be on the lookout for Finestone in her senior season alongside the rest of the Mules this fall.
