Hey, tennis fans It’s your girl Mia from Miami, and I’m super excited to share some of the hottest tennis events happening this fall. Whether you’re a pro or just starting out, there’s something for everyone.
First off, let’s talk about the HBCU National Tennis Championships. This year, the tournament is happening in Atlanta at the South Fulton Tennis Center, starting this Thursday, September 18. The event is all about celebrating the best in historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) tennis. Players will compete in both singles and doubles, with multiple draws and back draws available.
If you’re looking for some inspiration from the pros, have you checked out the latest from Tennis Recruiting? They’ve got the scoop on top prospects for the Class of 2024, including 5-star athletes like Paisha Douglas and Ellie Hammond. These young players are making waves in the tennis world, and it’s amazing to see their potential.
Back in Miami, our own University of Miami has a rich history in tennis. Did you know that they’ve produced some amazing alumni? Players like Monique Albuquerque, Maya Tahan, Jodi Appelbaum-Steinbauer, Audra Cohen, and Doris Hart have all made their mark in the sport. The University of Miami’s athletic teams are known as the Miami Hurricanes and compete in Division I of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA).
Tennis isn’t just about the pros; it’s also a growing sport at the high school level. In Ohio, for example, there are plenty of talented young players making their way through the ranks. Check out Ohio Tennis Zone for updates on high school tennis results and rankings. Players like Ivy Berlin from Cleveland and Caroline Koch from Gates Mills are names you should keep an eye on.
So there you have it – exciting events happening all over the country this fall. Whether you’re cheering on your favorite HBCU team or watching up-and-coming talent in high school tennis, there’s something for everyone. If you want, you can check out the news where I found it here.
