LEXINGTON, Ky. – The Southeastern Conference announced its 2026 Preseason Watchlist on Wednesday, naming three Wildcats ahead of the 2026 season.
Michelle Moskau, Nadia Ramadan, & Lexi Tylenda all represent the Wildcats and are three of the student-athletes recognized by the conference overall. It is Tylenda’s second time on the watchlist with the remainder of the group making their debuts.
Tylenda enters her junior year as a Wildcat, coming off a 2025 season where she played in all 21 games and totaled 1538 minutes. The forward finished 2025 with seven goals, four assists, and 18 points for the blue and white, leading the team in goals alongside Catherine Rapp and Anna Sikorski.
Moskau find her way back the pitch after being sidelined last year due to an ACL injury in preseason. Mosaku’s anticipated return comes after starting 20 or 21 matches in 2023 at center back. During 2023, she played 1538 minutes and tallied 10 shots, three shots on goal, and one goal from the back line.
Ramadan, a transfer from Alabama, is no stranger to the SEC Preseason Watchlist. Last season with the Tide she was named to the watchlist and competed in every game with 13 starts. Her freshman year, in 2023, Ramadan notched SEC All-Freshman Team honors, and has also been called up to the Egyptian National Team numerous times throughout her career. Enrolling in January, Ramadan brings goal scoring and set piece excellence to the young roster of the Wildcats.
