One of the best singles tennis players in Marquette history, Elisa Penalvo was a four-time all Conference USA First Team Selection - the only Marquette tennis player to accomplish that feat - and represented Marquette at the NCAA Singles Championships in 1997, 1998 and 1999.
In 1996-1997, her rookie year, not only was she named Conference USA Freshman of the Year, but also the league's player of the year and ITA Freshman of the Year.
Her 101 singles wins rank third all-time and her 36 wins in 1996-97 also rank third on the single-season wins list. Penalvo ranked as high as ninth in the nation in singles play which marks Marquette's highest individual tennis ranking.
Penalvo was also a part of the school's longest doubles winning streak, as she paired with Joanna Bauza for 18 consecutive victories in the 1996-1997 season.
