In the past I’ve done the current college player ATP rankings but I thought I’d do an update and also include all college players both past, present, and future. To view the sheet in a separate window click here. There is a tab listed for current/future college players, past college players, and both combined. TCU’s Cameron Norrie is now inside the top 300 after a run to the finals of the Aptos Challenger last weekend while Virginia commit Carl Soderlund is the only other current/future player inside the top 500. John Isner (Georgia ’07), Steve Johnson (USC ’12), and Kevin Anderson (Illinois ’07) are each inside the top...

The top seed Michael Mmoh cruised into the semifinals in Kalamazoo but none of the other top four seeds were as fortunate.

Southern Illinois women’s head coach Audra Anderson was promoted to the Director of Tennis and will now assume the role as the new men’s head coach after the departure of Dann Nelson to UTRGV.

Jonny Rigby, who graduated this past May, will serve as a graduate assistant for a program that is now going year-to-year due to the financial woes in the state of Illinois. Normally I add a picture when the school puts its news release on Twitter or Facebook but as far as I can see they didn’t put it on social media anywhere which is...
