Lucia Butkovska finished her career with the best singles winning percentage in program history (.818), the top individual singles win, was one of just two players to garner multiple All-West Coast Conference First Team singles honors and led the Pilots to the team's first national ranking during her time on The Bluff despite playing just two seasons.

The Bratislava, Slovakia native graduated in three seasons while earning Dean's List recognition each semester and WCC All-Academic honors every year. She posted a 45-10 overall singles record, including 31-5 mark in dual singles action. Her win against then-No. 2 ranked Luisa Stefani of Pepperdine is the program's only Top 10 singles win. She was nationally ranked in both of her competitive seasons – reaching as high as No. 60 each year – and finished No. 103 in 2015 and No. 68 in 2016. Butkovska helped the 2015 women's tennis team crack the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Team Rankings with a high of No. 48 before finishing the year at No. 63. She also led the 2015 Pilots to the best team win in program history (No. 33 Saint Mary's), the program's first victory over Oregon, the top WCC regular season finish (2nd in 2015) and Portland's first appearance in the WCC Tournament Finals.
