This year's Moment of the Year Tournament has been whittled down to the final two (as voted on by you, the fans). With one week remaining, let's take a look at this year's championship.
After three weeks, the field of 12 has been reduced to two.
Last week, we saw the No. 2-seeded No. 2-seeded women's tennis claiming the Red Banner, eliminate No. 3 seed men's swimming & diving's Noel De Geus becoming the first swimmer since 1973 to win four straight national championships in a single event. The second semifinal matchup was No. 8-seeded men's lacrosse (Ryan Rundle's record-setting performance), ending No. 12 women's basketball's run (Aly Avrach's school-record nine 3-pointers).
Here is the finals matchup.
No. 2 seed - Women's Tennis - Wins 1st Red Banner
Up 3-1 on No. 2 Lindsey Wilson in the NAIA National Championships, No. 17 Alexandra Melnikova sealed the national championship on court two, taking down No. 51 Martina Cortal 6-3, 6-1. After falling behind, 1-0, Keiser rallied in singles with wins on the top four flights to claim the program's first national title since 2003.
No. 8 seed - Men's Lacrosse - Rundle breaks program record
NAIA All-American Ryan Rundle became the program's all-time leader in points scored during the team's 25-6 win over No. 5 Reinhardt on Senior Day. The senior scored his seventh goal of the game to cap off a 10-point outing as the Seahawks routed the Eagles.
Voting will take place from now until Tuesday, June 30 at 5 p.m. Be sure to cast your vote on what you think was the 2025-26 Keiser Moment of the Year.
