Two-time All-American Verena Preikschas helped re-launch the Stanislaus State tennis program as soon as she became a Warrior. As a freshman, she went 20-2 in singles play and had 19 wins in doubles play en route to being named the CCAA's Most Valuable Player of the Year.

She earned two All-American awards in 2010-11 in singles and doubles (with partner Katie Eng) as well as two Academic All-America awards that same year. In September of 2012, Preikschas had the distinction as a Top 9 finalist for the NCAA Woman of the Year award, the top honor for a female student-athlete of all divisions.

Preikschas holds seven of the eight Stan State records including 66 singles wins and 69 doubles wins in a career, as well as singles wins in a season with 20. She also holds all four winning-percentage records in singles and doubles play.

At Stan State, Preikschas collected accolades throughout her collegiate career, including earning the University's Female Athlete of the Year twice and Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year. The psychology major capped off her Stanislaus State career as she received the Geiger-Metzger Award, given to the top graduate at the 2011-12 CSU Stanislaus commencement.
