For us coaches, the beginning of the new school year is always one of the most exciting moments for our team. It is a chance to build on the depth and ingrained culture that has sustained Middlebury Men’s Tennis, but also a new opportunity to evolve and make our own imprint on the program and to define this year’s team identity. Over the summer, our team was incredibly productive both on and off the tennis courts. They completed internships and competed in tournaments both domestically and abroad too! Below are a few action snapshots from our summers.

This Fall, we will have two juniors who are studying abroad. Thehan is currently in Australia and Nikky is in Denmark! We miss them already, but it is fun staying connected with them to follow their adventures, keep them connected with our team, and of course to hear when they find club and tournament tennis they can play against international competition is awesome too!

Special shout out to Tristan Kaye who has taken a new role at Brown University, thanks so much for all you did for the program and we will now be rooting for Brown too! The excitement we feel at the start of the season is hard to quantify, and we cannot wait to translate that energy into our training and efforts to pursue exploring our potential and looking to create another year with deep postseason runs!
