Schedule of Events

Alumni Tennis Match - Saturday, October 2
The Tennis Team has set aside October 2nd this fall to host another Alumni Match. Last year’s alumni squad included Captain P.J. Maguire, class of 1989, CDR Michael F. Wilson, class of 1989, CDR Timothy Haws, class of 1994, CDR Thomas Cooper, class of 1994, and LT John Garr, class of 1997. We will hold a match with as few as three alumni players. We can create a hybrid alumni team by pairing up alumni with some of our top players to create some pretty formidable doubles combinations. The cadets really enjoy meeting alumni, so if you are an alumnus/alumna attending this year’s Homecoming Weekend and you are interested in playing in an Alumni Match Saturday morning, before the football game, we would love to see you. Just send an email to coach Jim Hazlin at James.B.Hazlin@uscga.edu.
