QUOTING COACH COBBLE
Head Coach
Josh Cobble expressed his enthusiasm about the start of the season, "I'm really excited for this weekend's tournament. It will be a great opportunity to see how our players compete in a D2 college tennis environment which is different for all of our new players." Coach Cobble added, "The Billingsley family is our sponsor again this year who are always great supporters of the tennis program among other things in the community and allows us to bring a great tennis event like this home."
He also highlighted, "We are returning to players who are returning after a lot of success last season.
Noe Milliard was nationally ranked in singles all spring as a freshman and played the top doubles spot for most of the season.
Jenna Goessel spent the season in and out of the national ranking in singles and was an All-American in doubles." Coach Cobble concluded by saying, "This list of new players brings together freshmen with transfers from all levels of college tennis from D1, D2, NAIA and Junior College. It's early and we are young but I'm excited to see this group live and in action this weekend."
