The Husker experience
Since joining the program in June of 2022, my time at Nebraska has been nothing short of amazing.
I've fallen in love with the school, the town, and the people.
Every day, I appreciate being here more and more.
Year one was an amazing experience. Learning under Coach Maymi and getting my feet wet as the Assistant Coach at a P5 program with big goals and a championship mindset was invaluable.
And truthfully, I needed it.
This summer, Coach Maymi took the head coaching position at Michigan, and as a result, I was promoted to be the Interim Head Coach here at Nebraska.
It's hard to describe how much the trust of this community and staff means to me.
Sure, I was fortunate to be in that position, but at the same time, I also feel incredibly confident about the future of Husker tennis.
Also because of my new Assistant Coach, Ray Sarmiento, who has been doing phenomenal work since stepping foot here on campus a few months ago.
Ray was also one of the best college players in the country. He was a five-time All-American and won three NCAA titles with USC, and ranked as high as 287 in the world in singles as a professional.
We have a shared vision of success and a belief in our players' abilities.
It hasn't always been easy, but the guys have bought into what we're doing, and it's been incredibly rewarding to see their growth and success.
One of the highlights of my coaching career so far has been Calvin Mueller's victory at the Big Ten Championships just a few months ago.
It's great to see him play up to his talents, and we're all beyond excited for him.
It's a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire team.
We're building a close-knit family and a culture of winning.
Calvin's success is also our team's success.
I want the Husker fans and the community to know that we are committed to bringing this type of success to Nebraska.
We have two young, hungry and ambitious coaches who know how to win and are determined to make this program thrive.
