2008 UNC Tennis Dual Match Season Outlook<br />
Coming off back-to-back record-shattering<br />
seasons, the University of <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
men’s tennis team is well positioned<br />
to make another sustained run at conference,<br />
regional and national honors in<br />
2008. The Tar Heels begin their challenging<br />
dual-match season with five consecutive<br />
matches at home beginning January<br />
29 before hitting the road for matches at<br />
Ohio State and at the Intercollegiate Tennis<br />
Association Team Nationals in Seattle,<br />
Wash. The Tar Heels will begin their ACC<br />
season at home against Wake Forest on<br />
March 18 after meeting the likes of Rice,<br />
Ohio State, VCU and Auburn in the nonconference<br />
part of the schedule.<br />
Head coach Sam Paul’s 2007 team was<br />
instrumental in winning its head mentor<br />
ACC Coach of the Year accolades for the<br />
fifth time in his career and Intercollegiate<br />
Tennis Association Mideast Region Coach<br />
of the Year honors for the fourth time since<br />
the 1996 season. Coach Paul was also a<br />
national coach of the year finalist for the<br />
fourth time in the past 12 years.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> finished 2007 campaign with a<br />
scintillating 24-4 overall ledger and a sterling<br />
9-2 mark in the Atlantic Coast Conference<br />
regular season. <strong>Carolina</strong>’s 11 overall<br />
victories against ACC opponents last year<br />
was a school record.<br />
All this came after losing four seniors<br />
from the singles starting lineup to graduation<br />
following the 2006 campaign, including<br />
first-team All-Americas Brad Pomeroy<br />
and Raian Luchici. <strong>Carolina</strong> came back to<br />
win 24 matches last season with a team<br />
that included only one senior – Sebastian<br />
Guejman – on the Tar Heels’ 15-man roster.<br />
The Tar Heels won their first 20<br />
matches of the season, reached the ACC<br />
Tournament finals for the first time since<br />
2002 and advanced to the second round<br />
of the NCAA Tournament. <strong>Carolina</strong> also<br />
earned its 15 NCAA Tournament bid in the<br />
past 16 years. UNC has participated in<br />
the NCAA Tournament every year since<br />
1992 except for 1999.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> returns 14 of 15 lettermen in<br />
2008 and adds a pair of talented newcomers<br />
to the roster. Returning singles<br />
starters from 2007 are headed by senior<br />
Benjamin Carlotti of Paris, France, an All-<br />
Atlantic Coast Conference selection last<br />
yea who played at the No. 1 singles spot.<br />
Carlotti finished the season with 22 overall<br />
singles wins, including eight over nationally-ranked<br />
opponents.<br />
Sophomores Chris Kearney of Irvine,<br />
Calif. and Stefan Hardy of Santa Maria,<br />
Calif. were both incredible starters as<br />
freshmen while sharing the No. 2 and No.<br />
3 starting positions. Hardy played at the<br />
No. 2 spot 15 times and No. 3 spot 12<br />
times and compiled a 22-7 overall ledger.<br />
He won honors as the Intercollegiate Ten-<br />
nis Association Mideast Region Rookie of<br />
the Year.<br />
Kearney was named the Atlantic Coast<br />
Conference’s Freshman Player of the Year<br />
for 2007 after the Californian finished with<br />
an overall singles record of 24-9. Kearney<br />
was 6-4 at No. 2 and 8-2 at No. 3 during<br />
the dual match season.<br />
Besides the big three at the top of the<br />
Tar Heel lineup, three other Tar Heels with<br />
significant returning starting experience in<br />
singles include junior Taylor Fogleman of<br />
New Orleans, La., senior Will Plyler of<br />
Raleigh, N.C. and senior Karl Wishart of<br />
Baden-Baden, Germany. Senior David<br />
Stone of Greensboro, N.C. also figures in<br />
the mix for a starting singles position as<br />
does sophomore Clay Donato, a native of<br />
Toronto, Ontario and a transfer from Texas<br />
A&M University who started for the Aggies<br />
in their singles lineup last year.<br />
Fogleman led the Tar Heels in overall<br />
singles victories last year with 26, of which<br />
16 were in dual matches. Playing primarly<br />
at No. 6 singles, Plyler, a two-year starter,<br />
finished 17-8 overall. Wishart was 5-2 at<br />
No. 6 singles last year while seeing his<br />
first significant playing time in the Tar Heel<br />
singles grouping.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> is expected to utilize doubles<br />
combinations that feature Taylor Fogleman<br />
and Chris Kearney, Stefan Hardy and<br />
Clay Donato and Lenny Gullan and David<br />
Stone. Fogleman and Hardy were a brilliant<br />
22-4 last year and went on to win the<br />
ITA Mideast Region indoor doubles championship<br />
this past October. The duo then<br />
reached the semifinals of the national indoors<br />
in November.<br />
Stone and Gullan return for their third<br />
season together as starters in doubles.<br />
The tandem played at No. 1 doubles last<br />
year and finished with a 20-16 overall<br />
record. Hardy teamed with Sebastian<br />
Guejman at No. 2 doubles last year with<br />
that highly successful doubles team going<br />
19-5 overall.<br />
Doubles play was crucial for the Tar<br />
Heels in 2007 as it went 24-0 in matches<br />
in which they won the doubles point and<br />
0-4 in matches in which they did not. UNC<br />
won seven matches decided by 4-3 scores<br />
and another four in which the final score<br />
was 4-2.<br />
<strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong> finished the season<br />
ranked No. 10 in the ITA rankings, its highest<br />
finish since going to the NCAA quarterfinals<br />
under legendary coach Allen Morris<br />
in 1992. UNC reached the No. 5 ranking<br />
on both April 3 and April 10, 2007, marking<br />
its highest-ever in-season ranking.<br />
UNC begins the 2008 campaign at the<br />
No. 10 spot in which it finished last year.<br />
Senior Karl Wishart<br />
entered this year<br />
with a 31-12 career<br />
singles mark.<br />
Junior Taylor Fogleman<br />
led <strong>Carolina</strong> with<br />
26 singles win in<br />
2006-07.<br />
Chris Kearney won<br />
ACC Rookie of the<br />
Year in 2007, the first<br />
Tar Heel since 1999.<br />
Stefan Hardy was<br />
21-6 in dual-match<br />
singles last year.<br />

With the parity present in<br />
men's college tennis, Sam<br />
Paul's career achievements at<br />
<strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong> are significant.<br />
He has 237 career victories at<br />
UNC and is the ACC's third<br />
active winningest coach with<br />
a 84-37 regular season record. He has<br />
coached six first-team All-American and four<br />
players who have achived singles rankings in<br />
the top 500 in the world. Paul also served as<br />
Don Johnson's traveling coach when he ascended<br />
to No. 1 in the ATP Doubles Rankings.<br />
Four of Paul's recent All-Americans — Nick<br />
Monroe, Tripp Phillips, Brad Pomeroy and<br />
Raian Luchici continue to play on the ATP<br />

A recent addition to the membership of the<br />
200-victory club, Paul begins his 15th year as<br />
head coach at <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong> in 2007-08 and<br />
his 19th season at <strong>Carolina</strong> overall. A fivetime<br />
Atlantic Coast Conference Coach of the<br />
Year selection, four-time intercollegiate Tennis<br />
Association Mideast Region Coach of the Year<br />
and four-time ITA National Coach of the Year<br />

as a collegiate head coach with an outstanding<br />
Coach Sam Paul is seen pictured with <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
tennis legend and All-America Vic Seixas, both a<br />
Wimbledon and U.S. Open singles champion.
Sam Paul earned his 200th victory as the Tar Heels’ head coach when <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
defeated Charlotte 7-0 on March 4, 2006 at the Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center.<br />
237-115 dual-match record at <strong>Carolina</strong> and a<br />
84-37 ACC regular-season dual match record.<br />
<strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong>’s tradition of excellence in<br />
men’s tennis has continued under Paul, who<br />
ranks as the fourth winningest coach in ACC<br />
history in dual match wins in his career and is<br />
second in UNC history in that category behind<br />
only Don Skakle.<br />
The 47-year-old native of Lancaster, S.C.,<br />
has been uniting the winning reputation of<br />
UNC men’s tennis with his adroit skills for<br />
coaching and recruiting since he was named<br />
the head coach by UNC Athletic Director John<br />
Swofford in April 1993, making <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
one of the most respected programs in the nation.<br />
Twice since the 2000 season, Paul has<br />
mentored student-athletes who have won the<br />
Patterson Medal as <strong>Carolina</strong>’s outstanding<br />
senior student-athlete<br />
— Tripp Phillips<br />
in 2000 and Nick<br />
Monroe in 2004.<br />
Phillips returned to<br />
campus last year as<br />
the assistant coach<br />
for the Tar Heels.<br />
Paul has also<br />
mentored six firstteam<br />
All-Americas<br />
in his tenure as<br />
head coach, including<br />
one two-time<br />
first-team All America.<br />
David Caldwell<br />
(two-time All-America),<br />
Brint Morrow,<br />
Tripp Phillips, Nick<br />
Monroe, Raian<br />
Luchici and Brad Pomeroy have been<br />
awarded the prestigious honor of All-America<br />
status. Paul coached Bryan Jones, Chris<br />
Mumford, Ronald Thornqvist and Daryl Wyatt<br />
to first-team All-America honors during his assistant<br />
coaching years at <strong>Carolina</strong> from 2000-<br />
03 under the head coaching aegis of Allen<br />
Morris.<br />
In 2006, Paul mentored Raian Luchici who<br />
became the first ITA National Senior Player of<br />
the Year in UNC history while playing on one<br />
of the best squads UNC fans have witnessed.<br />
The 2006 squad finished the season ranked<br />
No. 12 nationally. In the course of the season,<br />
the Tar Heels tied what was then the highest<br />
team ranking in ITA ratings history with a No.<br />
8 rank, a ranking which was also reached by<br />
the 1992 squad. The 2006 team went 25-5 in<br />
dual matches and tied the record for the most<br />
wins in school history, which was also<br />
achieved by the 1992 team. Joining Luchici<br />
as an All-America honoree in 2006 was fellow<br />
senior Brad Pomeroy. Six Tar Heels won 20 or<br />
more singles matches during the course of the<br />
season.<br />
Besides their success on the court, Tar Heel<br />
tennis teams under Coach Paul also excel in<br />
the classroom. The UNC men’s tennis team<br />
had the highest composite grade point average<br />
of any men’s athletic<br />
team at <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
during the 2003-04<br />
school year and again<br />
during the 2004-05<br />
school year. Eight Tar<br />
Heel players of the 14<br />
on the squad in 2005-<br />
06 were named to the<br />
ACC Academic Honor<br />
Roll. Eight of the 15<br />
players on last year’s<br />
squad were tapped for<br />
ACC Academic Honor<br />
Roll accolades.<br />
Paul has tutored four<br />
players at <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
who have been<br />
ranked in the Top 500<br />
in the world in men’s<br />
Head Coach Sam Paul<br />
singles — Don Johnson (UNC class of ’90),<br />
David Caldwell (UNC Class of ’96), Tripp<br />
Phillips (UNC Class of ’00) and Nick Monroe<br />
(UNC Class of ’04).<br />
Paul became the only ACC coach to coach<br />
a player ranked No. 1 in the world in the ATP<br />
men’s doubles rankings when he acted as personal<br />
coach for UNC alumnus Don Johnson<br />
during his magnificent runs in doubles at Wimbledon<br />
and the U.S. Open during the late<br />
1990s and early years of this decade. Paul<br />
coached Johnson to a pair of Grand Slam titles<br />
and an appearance on the U.S. Davis Cup<br />
Team.<br />
Paul took over the reins as head coach in<br />
May 1993 after being an assistant for coach<br />
Allen Morris for four years from 1989-1993. In<br />
2002, Paul directed his Tar Heels to a 19-6<br />
dual match record and the Atlantic Coast Conference<br />
tournament championship, the 25th in<br />
school history. <strong>Carolina</strong> has been invited to the<br />
NCAA Tournament 15 of the past 16 seasons<br />
while Paul has been an assistant coach and<br />
the head coach in Chapel Hill; only once in<br />
Paul’s tenure have the Tar Heels failed to<br />
make the NCAA Tournament field and that<br />
came in the 1999 season.<br />
Paul has repeatedly been rewarded for his<br />
coaching ability as he was selected the Atlantic<br />
Coast Conference Coach of the Year in<br />
1996, 2000, 2002, 2004 and 2007. The 1996<br />
Tar Heels amassed a 21-5 overall record, went<br />
undefeated in the ACC regular season at 8-0<br />
and saw five players complete individual 20win<br />
seasons. Senior David Caldwell received<br />
ACC Player of the Year honors for the third<br />
consecutive season and won the No. 1 singles<br />
title for the third straight season — both league<br />
firsts.<br />
The 2000 Tar Heels compiled an 18-6 mark,<br />
reached the NCAA Tournament regional final<br />
and had three players earn ACC flight championship<br />
honors. Senior Tripp Phillips earned All-<br />
America distinction as he advanced to the<br />
NCAA quarterfinals and won the Patterson<br />
Medal as UNC’s outstanding senior athlete.<br />
In 2002, the Tar Heels had one of their best<br />
seasons in recent memory as UNC went 19-6<br />
overall against a brutal schedule and won the<br />

In 2004, UNC surprised much of the college<br />
tennis world by rising from a No. 50 preseason<br />
ranking to share the ACC regular-season<br />
championship and earn the No. 11 seed in the<br />
NCAA Tournament. The Tar Heels finished 23-<br />
5 overall and hosted an NCAA regional for the<br />
first time since the tournament field expanded<br />
to 64. Nick Monroe became the fourth NCAA<br />
singles quarterfinalist coach by Paul.<br />
After serving as the Director of Tennis and<br />
the head men’s and women’s tennis coaches<br />
at the University of Richmond for two years<br />
from 1987-89, Paul came to Chapel Hill as<br />
Coach Allen Morris’ assistant coach in September<br />
1989. At the University of Richmond,<br />
he won honors as the Colonial Athletic Association’s<br />
(CAA) Women’s Tennis Coach of the<br />
Year in both 1988 and 1989. His women went<br />
11-11 in his first year at the helm, finishing third<br />
in the CAA. The Spiders improved to 14-7 in<br />
1989, which was good for second place in the<br />
CAA. The 1989 team was also ranked in the<br />
Mideast region’s Top 10. On the men’s side,<br />
Paul led the Spiders to a 12-9 mark and thirdplace<br />
CAA league finish in his second year<br />
while working with a non-scholarship men’s<br />
program at Richmond.<br />
During Paul’s four years as the <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
assistant, UNC<br />
was 82-29 overall<br />
in dual<br />
matches, 26-3 in<br />
Atlantic Coast<br />
Conference regular-season<br />
dual<br />
matches and 10-<br />
2 in ACC Tournament<br />
dual<br />
matches. Paul<br />
was an assistant<br />
for teams which<br />
won ACC Tournament<br />
titles in<br />
1990 and 1992,<br />
were the ACC<br />
Tournament runnersup<br />
in 1991<br />
and 1993 and<br />
won the conference’sregular-<br />

season championships in 1991 and 1992. All<br />
four teams Paul worked with at <strong>Carolina</strong> as an<br />
assistant to Morris were ranked in the Top 25<br />
in the nation by the ITA.<br />
The 1992 <strong>Carolina</strong> team reached the quarterfinals<br />
of the NCAA Tournament and the<br />
1993 squad was in the NCAA Tournament<br />
Final 16. Since Paul took over as UNC’s head<br />
coach the Tar Heels have made the NCAA<br />
Tournament field every year from 1994<br />
through 2007 with the exception of 1999.<br />
Under Paul’s guidance, the Tar Heels hosted<br />
NCAA regionals in 2004, 2006 and 2007.<br />
During his tenure, the Tar Heels have also<br />
had remarkable success in ITA Grand Slam<br />
events. A <strong>Carolina</strong> player has competed in the<br />
national singles indoor competition nine of the<br />
past 16 years, most recently Raian Luchici in<br />
2005. In 1993, former UNC men’s assistant<br />
coach and two-time All-America selection<br />
Ronald Thornqvist won the ITA Indoors title in<br />
Minneapolis, Minn.<br />
In 2004, Geoff Boyd and Brad Pomeroy<br />
won the Mideast Region doubles championship<br />
and advanced to the quarterfinals of<br />
the national indoors. Brad Pomeroy and<br />
Raian Luchici reached the finals of the 2005<br />
All-American Championships and the semifinals<br />
of the 2005 ITA National Indoors and<br />
earned the No. 1 collegiate ranking in doubles<br />
in the 2006 preseason in the process. The<br />
duo ended the season as All-America selections,<br />
ranked No. 6 in<br />
the country.<br />

2007 Season Review<br />
Benjamin Carlotti<br />
played No. 1 singles<br />
for the Tar Heels in<br />
2007.<br />
Stefan Hardy split<br />
time at No. 2 and No. 3<br />
singles for the Tar<br />
Heels last season.<br />
Chris Kearney split<br />
time at No. 2 and No.<br />
3 singles with Stefan<br />
Hardy.<br />
Sebastian Guejman<br />
played No. 4 singles<br />
for the Tar Heels.<br />
Fielding one of the youngest teams in school history,<br />
the University of <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong> men’s tennis team followed<br />
a tremendous 2006 season with a 2007 campaign<br />
that was its equal, if not its better, in many respects.<br />
In 2006, <strong>Carolina</strong> went 25-5, finished No. 12 in the final<br />
ITA poll and won its regional final against Clemson to advance<br />
to the NCAA Final 16 for the first time since 1993.<br />
That team finished in a fourth-place tie in the ACC but was<br />
upset in the ACC Tournament quarterfinals. It was anchored<br />
by four senior starters, including the singles players<br />
at No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3 in the lineup. Among the<br />
four seniors on that team were 2006 first-team All-Americas<br />
Raian Luchici and Brad Pomeroy.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> began the 2007 season with two juniors, one<br />
sophomore and two freshmen in the starting singles<br />
lineup to go along with the team’s lone senior, Sebastian<br />
Guejman. When the first national ranking of the year was<br />
released on January 9, 2007, the Tar Heels were ranked<br />
No. 22, 10 spots lower than its 2006 end-of-the-season<br />
ranking. That was not totally unexpected as pollsters<br />
were waiting to see if the younger Tar Heels were going to<br />
follow their Sweet 16 season with another banner campaign.<br />
What <strong>Carolina</strong> found out quickly is that as a team it was<br />
developing a pattern where from day-to-day different players<br />
stepped up to provide the Tar Heels with an almost<br />
uncanny ability to win closely contested matches.<br />
Early on the Tar Heels’ winning formula became clear<br />
— win the doubles point. In fact, the doubles point was an<br />
indicator in each of the 28 matches of the season. Win<br />
the point and <strong>Carolina</strong> was 24-0. Lose the point and the<br />
Tar Heels were 0-4.<br />
Eleven of the 28 matches were decided by either 4-2<br />
or 4-3 scores and the Tar Heels went an umarred 11-0 in<br />
them. Even more amazing was the fact that <strong>Carolina</strong> did<br />
not sweep the doubles matches in any of those 11 victories.<br />
In each victory a different combination of doubles<br />
teams stepped up and got the job done. This regularly allowed<br />
the Tar Heels to only have to win three singles<br />
matches to earn the team win. Repeatedly head coach<br />
Sam Paul’s team found a way to do just that. In fact, in<br />
posting 24 victories overall, <strong>Carolina</strong> only swept all three<br />
doubles matches six times.<br />
In 2006, the Tar Heels had won their first 15 matches of<br />
the season, running the table against non-conference opponents<br />
before losing their ACC opener against Wake<br />
Forest. The younger Heels of ‘07 went that start-of-thecampaign<br />
winning streak five better, winning 20 in succession<br />
before falling to Duke 5-2 on April 11. It was the<br />
best start to a UNC season in 42 years — since the 1965<br />
squad won all 20 of its matches in a perfect 20-0 campaign.<br />
After winning its first four matches at home and outscoring<br />
its opponents 27-1, the Heels traveled to Houston,<br />
Texas and defeated Rice 4-2 and Vanderbilt 4-0. The<br />
Rice match was the first of several matches in which senior<br />
Sebastian Guejman provided a winning team point at<br />
No. 4 singles.<br />
UNC then returned home to beat Mideast Region foe<br />
South <strong>Carolina</strong> for the fourth straight year, a 6-1 lopsided<br />
win in Chapel Hill. Eight days later, the Heels beat VCU<br />
on the road 4-2, their third straight year beating the Rams<br />
when VCU was ranked higher than the Tar Heels.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> went on to notch 4-3 or 4-2 wins over San<br />
Diego, Georgia Tech, Clemson (its fourth win in the last<br />
five meetings against the Tigers), Wake Forest, Florida<br />
State, NC State and Virginia Tech.<br />
Finishing the regular season 9-2 in the ACC, the Heels<br />
2008 UNC MEN’S TENNIS • PAGE 22<br />
beat Virginia Tech 4-2 in the ACC<br />
quarterfinals and staged a furious<br />
rally to down Florida State 4-<br />
3 in the semifinals. The Heels<br />
ran into a buzzsaw against second-ranked<br />
Virginia in the ACC<br />
final but the appearance in the<br />
ACC championship match was<br />
the first for UNC since 2002.<br />
Despite being upset by NC<br />
State in the second round of the<br />
NCAA Tournament, i2007 was a<br />
remarkable season for UNC.<br />
Benjamin Carlotti and Chris<br />
Kearney were named All-ACC,<br />
Kearney was named the ACC<br />
Freshman of the Year and Stefan<br />
Hardy was the ITA Mideast<br />
Region Rookie of the Year.<br />
After guiding his team to a<br />
school-record 11 overall ACC<br />
wins in 2007, Sam Paul was<br />
named 2007 ACC Coach of the<br />
Year. That was the fifth time<br />
overall and fourth time in the last<br />
seven years that Paul earned<br />
the honor, which annually is<br />
voted upon by his peers. Paul's<br />
teams have finished among the<br />
top three in the final ACC regular<br />
season standings in 14 of his 18<br />
years at UNC as an assistant<br />
coach and the head coach.<br />
During the 2007 season, <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
was ranked in the nation's<br />
top 10 for six consecutive weeks,<br />
As a sophomore in<br />
2007, Taylor Fogleman<br />
recorded 26 singles<br />
victories.<br />
Will Plyler spent most<br />
of the season at the<br />
No. 6 position in the<br />
singles lineup.<br />
a school record. <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong> posted its fourth highestranked<br />
road win in school history on March 28, 2007 when<br />
the Tar Heels defeated No. 7 Wake Forest in Winston-<br />
Salem, N.C.<br />
Paul's 2007 team also had 13 wins over 11 different<br />
teams that were selected for the NCAA Tournament. <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
played in the nation's toughest conference, finishing<br />
second in the league in the ACC regular season and in<br />
the ACC Tournament. <strong>Carolina</strong> also earned an NCAA first<br />
and second host site for the third time in four years. UNC<br />
went 9-1 on the road last year, with its only loss coming at<br />
No. 2 Virginia.<br />

<strong>Carolina</strong>’s membership in the league.<br />
The Southern Conference decided a<br />
sole doubles championship team<br />
throughout <strong>Carolina</strong>’s membership in<br />
the league. In addition to those listed,<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> also won doubles championships<br />
in 1922 and 1923 but research<br />
has been unable to attach the<br />
names of the champions to those<br />
years. The Atlantic Coast Conference<br />
decided sole singles and doubles<br />
champions from 1954 to 1964.<br />
Beginning in 1965, ACC champions<br />
were determined by flight. The ACC<br />
discontinued the practice of naming<br />
flight champions following the 2001<br />
season. It now merely names an All-<br />
ACC Team.<br />
Tom Chewning won<br />
ACC titles in 1965,<br />
1966 and 1967 at No.<br />
5 and 4 singles.<br />
O.H. Parrish won the<br />
No. 1 singles and doubles<br />
titles in 1965 for<br />
Coach Don Skakle.<br />
Smokey Swenson<br />
won ACC singles and<br />
doubles crowns in<br />
1967.<br />
Wilmer Hines won<br />
the 1933 Southern<br />
Conference titles.
Ron Erskine played<br />
in the 1983 NCAA<br />
singles tournament.<br />

2008 UNC MEN’S TENNIS • PAGE 33
<strong>Carolina</strong> History<br />
The 2002 Tar Heels captured the 25th ACC championship<br />
in school history.<br />
The University of <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong> men’s tennis<br />
program began its march to greatness in 1908.<br />
The 2008 season will mark 100 years since that<br />
first <strong>Carolina</strong> team played the Tar Heels’ first varsity<br />
season. Because three teams were not<br />
fielded in later years the 2008 campaign will actually<br />
mark the 98th season of UNC tennis. The<br />
2010 campaign will mark the 100th UNC team<br />
of all-time.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong>’s tennis history is rich in nature. The<br />
Tar Heels have won more dual matches than<br />
any other school in history.<br />
Over the course of the past 18 seasons during<br />
the assistant coach and head coach tennure<br />
of Sam Paul, the Tar Heels have claimed six Atlantic<br />
Coast Conference regular-season or tournament<br />
championships (1990, 1991, 1992,<br />
1996, 2002, 2004); earned 10 final Top 25 national<br />
rankings from the Intercollegiate Tennis<br />
Association (1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994,<br />
1996, 2000, 2004, 2006, 2007); and merited 15<br />
spots in the NCAA Tournament field (1992,<br />
1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000,<br />
2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007).<br />
The 2007 squad received the school’s highest<br />
seed ever in the NCAA Tournament at No. 6; the<br />
2004 and 2006 teams were both seeded No. 11<br />
in the NCAA Tournament. The Tar Heels hosted<br />
an NCAA regional in 2004 for the first time since<br />
the tournament went to its current 64-team format<br />
in 1999. The 2006 team also hosted an<br />
NCAA regional and beat Clemson in the regional<br />
final to advance to the NCAA Sweet 16<br />
for the first time since 1993. In 2007, <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
again hosted an NCAA regional at the Cone-<br />
Kenfield Tennis Center.<br />
The results of the past 18 years have been<br />
cause for celebration for Tar Heel head coach<br />
Sam Paul and his players. <strong>Carolina</strong>’s proud tennis<br />
program regained momentum in the 1990s<br />
Wayne Hearn earned 1985 Atlantic Coast Conference<br />
Player-of-the-Year honors.<br />
2008 UNC MEN’S TENNIS • PAGE 34<br />
In the 1960s and 1970s, the Tar Heels regularly<br />
drew capacity crowds at the Cobb Dorm clay<br />
courts, then the home of UNC tennis.<br />
similar to that from its early years in the nascent<br />
decades of the 20th century. It seems only appropriate<br />
that the first decade of the 21st century<br />
match the accomplishments long associated<br />
with the sport of tennis in Chapel Hill.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> has always had an especially rich<br />
tradition in the sport of tennis, featuring a long<br />
list of great coaches, players and teams. Over<br />
the past 100 years, since the first team was<br />
fielded in 1908 and during 97 successful seasons,<br />
UNC teams have compiled a phenomenal<br />
won-loss record that cannot be rivaled in all of<br />
college athletics.<br />
The Tar Heels’ overall dual-match record<br />
stands at 1,422-351-8, a winning percentage of<br />
.801. It was during the 2002 season that <strong>North</strong><br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> reached the point in its history where it<br />
had 1,000 more wins than it had losses, any<br />
amazing feat of long-term excellence. The milestone<br />
will came on February 9, 2002 when UNC<br />
defeated West Virginia 7-0 at the Cone-Kenfield<br />
Tennis Center. The win gave the Tar Heels<br />
1,000 more wins in history than losses for the<br />
first time as UNC’s record stood 1,307-307-8 at<br />
the end of that day. Going into the 2007 season,<br />
UNC teams have won 1,071 matches more than<br />
they have lost.<br />
Since the first Tar Heel team was fielded in<br />
the spring of 1908, 84 of 97 <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
teams have posted winning records, five have<br />
had break even seasons and only eight have<br />
had losing records and even one of those was<br />
good enough to qualify for the NCAA Tournament.<br />
During three years in the early part of the<br />
20th Century, the University fielded no team at<br />
all and in only five of the eight all-time losing<br />
seasons did the team actually play more than<br />
two matches on its entire schedule, finishing 3-<br />
4 in 1945, 8-9 in 1957, 14-16 in 1986, 11-14 in<br />
1999 and 11-12 in 2003. Nineteen of the 97<br />
The 2004 UNC team earned the privilege of<br />
hosting an NCAA Torunament regional for the<br />
first time in school history.<br />
Allen Morris served as UNC head from from<br />
1990-93 and was succeeded by his assistant<br />
Sam Paul.<br />
teams have finished their campaigns undefeated,<br />
the last time coming in 1970 with an 18-<br />
0 mark. During the late 1930s and early 1940s,<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> teams put together a 67-match winning<br />
streak, a collegiate record in its time which was<br />
eventually broken by William & Mary in 1949.<br />
Twenty-four <strong>Carolina</strong> teams have finished the<br />
season ranked among the nation’s Top 25<br />
teams, topped by a tie for third place at both the<br />
1947 and 1948 NCAA Championships. The University<br />
of <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong> also played host to the<br />
71st National Collegiate Tennis Championships<br />
in 1955 on the Campus Courts in Chapel Hill.<br />
Since the NCAA abandoned flight play and went<br />
to a team tournament format in 1977, <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
has made the NCAA field on 17 occasions — in<br />
1977, 1978, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996,<br />
1997, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004,<br />
2005, 2006 and 2007.<br />
Success in the Atlantic Coast Conference has<br />
also been the rule of the day during <strong>Carolina</strong>’s<br />
vaunted tennis history. Since the conference’s<br />
formation during the summer of 1953, Tar Heel<br />
teams have won a total of 25 league championships,<br />
including 23 outright crowns. In fact, in<br />
54 years of Atlantic Coast Conference competition,<br />
the Tar Heels have finished outside of the<br />
upper division of the league standings only five<br />
times and have been either first or second in the<br />
standings in 39 of those 54 years. The Tar Heels’<br />
cumulative regular-season dual-match ACC<br />
record stands at an amazing 305-80, a winning<br />
percentage of .792. <strong>Carolina</strong> players also won<br />
86 ACC singles championships and 37 doubles<br />
titles before flight champions were eliminated<br />
after the 2001 season.<br />
The Birth of Tar Heel Tennis<br />
The roots of tennis competition at the University<br />
of <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong> date back to 1884 when<br />
Tommy Bradford won the 1953 Southern Conferene<br />
and 1955 Atlantic Coast Conference doubles<br />
titles.
The 1965 <strong>Carolina</strong> team finished the regular season<br />
with a perfect 20-0 mark.<br />
the University Tennis Club was founded. In<br />
1894, the club began intercollegiate competition<br />
in the sport. It was not until 1908, however, that<br />
letters were first awarded to the players and the<br />
sport was granted varsity status at the University.<br />
From 1908 through 1927, the team functioned<br />
without a head coach and in 1911, 1915<br />
and 1919 no team was fielded at all. Beginning<br />
in 1920, Tar Heel teams have faced outside<br />
competition for 88 successive years.<br />
Program continuity kicked in as of the 1927<br />
season when John Kenfield arrived as head<br />
coach and Tar Heel tennis fortunes began to<br />
soar quickly. Kenfield answered an advertisement<br />
placed by the University Athletic Association<br />
in the American Lawn Tennis Journal. The<br />
ad sought <strong>Carolina</strong>’s first full-time tennis coach.<br />
Kenfield’s decision to respond to the query<br />
proved to be a stroke of luck for <strong>Carolina</strong> and<br />
not a half-bad decision for himself.<br />
Kenfield, then 35 years old, was working in<br />
Chicago as both a tennis instructor at the Lake<br />
Shore Country Club in suburban Glencoe, Ill.,<br />
and as a vice president of the Curtiss Candy<br />
Company, an enterprise he’d helped organize in<br />
the Windy City. While at Curtiss Candy Company,<br />
Kenfield named the Baby Ruth candy bar,<br />
one of the biggest sellers of all time, as well as<br />
the Butterfinger bar. The young candy company<br />
wanted a catchy name for its new confectionery<br />
treat featuring chocolate and peanuts to compete<br />
with the popular O’Henry bar of its leading<br />
business competitor. Babe Ruth was then at the<br />
height of his baseball career with the New York<br />
Yankees and Kenfield wrote the famous Bambino,<br />
asking for his permission to name the<br />
candy bar after him. Ruth sent back a royalty figure<br />
which the fledgling company couldn’t afford.<br />
Kenfield then suggested “Baby Ruth” as an alternate<br />
name because no royalties would have<br />
Greg Archer was a starter on the 2002 Tar Heel<br />
team which captured the ACC title.<br />
The Tar Heels celebrate after beating Clemson<br />
4-1 in the 2006 NCAA regonal final at the Cone-<br />
Kenfield Tennis Center.<br />
been involved. The name was adopted, the<br />
candy bar was a smash hit with the American<br />
populace, Curtiss made millions and the rest, as<br />
they say, is history. Baby Ruth and Butterfinger<br />
candy bars are still enormously popular fare 80<br />
years later.<br />
Kenfield’s first year as head coach was 1928<br />
and until his retirement after the 1955 season,<br />
his teams wrote a rather remarkable success<br />
story during his 28-year coaching tenure. Ten of<br />
his 28 teams finished their dual match seasons<br />
unbeaten and his overall coaching record was<br />
434-30-2 for a remarkable winning percentage<br />
of .933. His teams averaged a 16-1 record each<br />
year during his 28 seasons on the Hill. It was<br />
only appropriate that when the University built a<br />
new tennis facility in 1992 the naming honors on<br />
the complex should honor the founder of the<br />
program, Kenfield.<br />
Ruling the Roost in the Southern Conference<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> also dominated tennis in the Southern<br />
Conference, beginning with the league’s<br />
founding prior to the 1921-22 school year and<br />
running through 1953 when the Atlantic Coast<br />
Conference was formed. The University of<br />
<strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong> was one of the seven founding<br />
members of the ACC. Under Kenfield, <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
teams won Southern Conference team championships<br />
on 15 occasions — 1930, 1931, 1932,<br />
1933, 1936, 1937, 1939, 1940, 1941, 1942,<br />
1943, 1944, 1950, 1951 and 1953. Kenfield also<br />
coached 13 Southern Conference individual singles<br />
champions and 13 doubles teams which<br />
won league titles. Prior to Kenfield’s arrival on<br />
campus, <strong>Carolina</strong> also won Southern Conference<br />
doubles titles in 1922 and 1923, giving the<br />
school 15 doubles championships in all.<br />
Kenfield tutored some of the most accomplished<br />
players in <strong>Carolina</strong> tennis history. The<br />
George Sokol won three successive ACC singles<br />
titles from 1962-64.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> History<br />
Ham Strayhorn (right) coached the Tar Heels in<br />
1965, a team which included Don Thompson and<br />
Tommy Bradford.<br />
first great player who came under Kenfield’s<br />
tutelage was Bryan “Bitsy” Grant of Atlanta, Ga.,<br />
who came to UNC as a freshman in 1929.<br />
Rumor has it that Grant was actually enrolled at<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> for three months before Kenfield knew<br />
he was on campus. Once discovered, Grant<br />
blossomed quickly, being named an All-America<br />
selection in 1931. Ranked as high as No. 3 nationally<br />
in men’s singles during his post-collegiate<br />
career, Grant played on four U.S. Davis<br />
Cup teams and won a trio of U.S. Tennis Association<br />
national clay court championships.<br />
Grant and sophomore Wilmer Hines played<br />
together on <strong>Carolina</strong>’s 1931 team, which finished<br />
undefeated and won the Southern Conference<br />
title. Two years later, it was Hines who<br />
succeeded Grant as UNC’s top player, winning<br />
the Southern Conference singles title in 1933<br />
and combining with Lenoir Wright to win the<br />
doubles crown the same year. Hines was also<br />
named an All-America that year. After playing at<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong>, Hines went on to win the Italian Open<br />
championship. Ironically, Hines was more than<br />
merely a great tennis player. He also lettered in<br />
basketball three times at <strong>Carolina</strong> and captained<br />
the 1933 UNC basketball squad.<br />
In the late 1930s and early 1940s, Kenfield’s<br />
top players included players like Ramsay Potts,<br />
Archie Henderson, Harris Everett and Zan<br />
Carver. Potts, who graduated in 1937 and was<br />
also a two-time letterman in basketball at <strong>Carolina</strong>,<br />
made the NCAA singles semifinals while<br />
at UNC. That was in 1936 when the National Intercollegiate<br />
Championships were held at <strong>North</strong>western<br />
University in Evanston, Ill. That same<br />
year, Potts was ranked No. 3 in the final national<br />
collegiate singles rankings.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> was so dominant during that time in<br />
Southern Conference tennis battles under Kenfield’s<br />
tutelage that in 1936, UNC had all four<br />

Geoffrey Black won the 1959 ACC doubles title<br />
with partner Ben Keys.<br />
semifinalists in the Southern Conference Tennis<br />
Championships’ singles competition.<br />
Henderson, a native Chapel Hillian, swept<br />
the singles titles of four of the six tournaments in<br />
which he played during the 1940 season and in<br />
the process beat all of the top American players<br />
of the time with the exception of the legendary<br />
Jack Kramer. In 1940, Everett won the Southern<br />
Conference singles championship. A year later,<br />
he won the league doubles crown while teaming<br />
with M.P. Anthony.<br />
Everett, who was also a native of Chapel Hill,<br />
improved his national ranking to 11th in 1940<br />
after he beat both German Davis Cup star Henner<br />
Henkle and Welby Van Horn at the Forest<br />
Hills United States National Championships. In<br />
1941, Carver gave up his Tar Heel football career<br />
to concentrate solely on tennis. He beat out<br />
Everett for the number one spot on the <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
team and then downed his teammate Everett for<br />
the Southern Conference singles title. That<br />
same season, Carver lost a tough three-set<br />
match (7-5 in the third) to Joe Hunt, who would<br />
go on to claim the singles title that year at the<br />
U.S. Open in Forest Hills.<br />
Seixas Becomes a Tennis Legend<br />
Near the end of his coaching tenure, Kenfield<br />
was asked to pick the all-time <strong>Carolina</strong> tennis<br />
team up to that point. The veteran mentor<br />
chose Grant No. 1, Hines No. 3, Henderson No.<br />
4, Carver No. 5 and Everett No. 6. The man in<br />
the second spot was the legendary Vic Seixas,<br />
an All-America selection in 1948. Seixas had a<br />
storybook career at <strong>Carolina</strong>, winning the Southern<br />
Conference singles title in 1948, finishing as<br />
the runnerup in both 1947 and 1949 and teaming<br />
with Clark Taylor to capture the league doubles<br />
crown in 1949. Seixas, a Philadelphia, Pa.<br />
native, came to the University after four years of<br />
Joe Frierson was one of the captains of the 1992<br />
Tar Heel team which reached the NCAA quarterfinals.<br />
2008 UNC MEN’S TENNIS • PAGE 36<br />
Sean Steinour played on Allen Morris’ ACC<br />
championship teams in 1990 and 1992.<br />
Army Air Force duty during World War II. In<br />
1948, Seixas entered the NCAA Tournament as<br />
the top seed. He won five matches in the tournament<br />
before dropping the championship match<br />
6-4, 1-6, 7-5, 6-1 to Harry Likas of the University<br />
of San Francisco, who was then No. 1 in the national<br />
singles rankings, one spot ahead of<br />
Seixas. Seixas advanced farther in NCAA singles<br />
action than any other Tar Heel in history.<br />
The same year at the NCAA Championships,<br />
Seixas and Clark Taylor were seeded third in the<br />
doubles tournament despite their less impressive<br />
seventh-place standing in the national doubles<br />
rankings. The duo won a pair of matches<br />
before losing to the brother team of Evert and<br />
Evert from Notre Dame, 6-3, 6-8, 3-6, 6-4, 6-3 in<br />
the quarterfinals. During his senior year in 1949,<br />
Seixas was the seventh-ranked men’s singles<br />
player in the U.S. amateur ranks.<br />
Seixas went on to have a star-studded career<br />
after graduating from <strong>Carolina</strong>. By 1952, he<br />
had attained the No. 1 singles ranking among<br />
Americans and he won the Wimbledon singles<br />
championship in 1953 and the U.S. Open title in<br />
1954. The 55 Davis Cup singles matches he<br />
played in were more than any American player<br />
in history and that record stood for decades. His<br />
75 U.S. Open men’s singles victories were a<br />
record that stood until broken by Jimmy Connors<br />
in 1985, almost 30 years after Seixas’ heyday<br />
in the sport.<br />
Skakle Leads UNC To Unequaled Success in<br />
the ACC<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> continued to have great teams during<br />
the 1950s. In the summer of 1953, UNC became<br />
a member of the Atlantic Coast<br />
Conference, joining six other schools as founding<br />
members in a league that grew from the original<br />
seven teams in 1953 to 12 teams in 2005.<br />
Thomas Tanner started on UNC’s 1990 ACC<br />
championship squad.<br />
Tar Heel Archie Henderson at Wimbledon in<br />
1945 with Queen Mary, wife of King George V<br />
and grandmother of Queen Elizabeth II.<br />
From 1955-1959, four different men piloted<br />
the Tar Heel program as head coach. Kenfield<br />
retired after the 1955 season with Ham Strayhorn<br />
serving as the head coach in 1956 and<br />
Vladimir Cernik tapped as the head man in 1957<br />
and 1958.<br />
With Don Skakle’s arrival as UNC’s head<br />
coach in 1959, the second great era in <strong>North</strong><br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> tennis began. A collegiate contemporary<br />
of Seixas who also played on UNC teams in<br />
the late 1940s, Skakle led his teams to total<br />
domination of the Atlantic Coast Conference<br />
during his 22 seasons as head coach. His teams<br />
won a total of 18 ACC titles, including 16 crowns<br />
outright. On nine occasions the Tar Heels finished<br />
among the nation’s Top 25 teams. Overall,<br />
Skakle’s teams had a 418-55 dual-match record<br />
in 22 seasons, including a 132-14 mark in the<br />
ACC.<br />
Among Skakle’s great players were George<br />
Sokol, who won a trio of ACC singles titles from<br />
1962-64, while being named an All-America in<br />
his junior year; Freddie McNair, <strong>Carolina</strong>’s only<br />
four-time first-team All-America selection, who<br />
won three ACC No. 1 doubles crowns and three<br />
ACC singles titles (two at No. 1 and one at No.<br />
2); Rich McKee, McNair’s doubles partner who<br />
was an All-America selection three times and<br />
the winner of two ACC singles championships<br />
and two league doubles crowns; and Billy Brock,<br />
a 1976 All-America who won a pair of conference<br />
crowns in both singles and doubles.<br />
McNair probably ranks as <strong>Carolina</strong>’s finest<br />
player since Seixas left campus in 1949 and before<br />
Roland Thornqvist and David Caldwell’s arrival<br />
in the ’90s. While at <strong>Carolina</strong>, McNair<br />
combined with McKee to reach the NCAA doubles<br />
finals in 1973 at Princeton, N.J., even<br />
though the duo had been upset in the finals of<br />
the ACC Tournament the same year. McNair<br />
UNC’s 2006 Senior Class of Raian Luchici, Brad<br />
Pomeroy, Derek Porter and Aly Mandour
went on to have a distinguished professional career,<br />
attaining the world’s No. 1 doubles ranking<br />
with teammate Sherwood Stewart in the late<br />
1970s. In fact, McNair won the 1976 French<br />
Open doubles title while teaming with Stewart.<br />
Allen Morris Arrives In Chapel Hill<br />
When Skakle passed away on the eve of the<br />
ACC Tournament in 1980, <strong>Carolina</strong> tennis suffered<br />
its first leadership void in over two<br />
decades. The University hired Allen Morris, a<br />
great tennis player in his own right, to become<br />
only the fifth head coach in school history. Morris<br />
was named ACC Coach of the Year three times<br />
during his tenure — in 1983, 1990 and 1992.<br />
During the 1984 campaign, UNC reached a<br />
major milestone when the school won its<br />
1,000th dual match in history. The victory came<br />
in San Antonio, Texas, as the Tar Heels upset<br />
sixth-ranked Trinity 5-4.<br />
Morris’ top players included Jeff Chambers,<br />
Wayne Hearn, Don Johnson, Bryan Jones and<br />
Roland Thornqvist. An All-America in 1985,<br />
Chambers earned four NCAA Tournament singles<br />
invitations and three NCAA doubles bids.<br />
Hearn was the ACC Player of the Year in 1985<br />
and he made the NCAA Tournament in both singles<br />
and doubles twice. Although he never<br />
made the NCAA Tournament, Johnson was a<br />
consistent player who was named the 1990<br />
ACC Tournament Most Valuable Player after<br />
leading the Tar Heels to their first conference<br />
crown in 12 years. Johnson went on to have a<br />
distinguished doubles career in the professional<br />
ranks, winning several major tournaments and<br />
consistently being ranked in the Top 10 in the<br />
world in doubles. Johnson earned two Wimbledon<br />
doubles titles and a U.S. Davis Cup appearance<br />
before his retirement in 2003 from the<br />
professional ranks to become <strong>Carolina</strong>’s assistant<br />
tennis coach.<br />
A Stellar 1992 Season for the Tar Heels<br />
Jones and Thornqvist helped lead the 1992<br />
squad to remarkable success on the court.<br />
Thornqvist was named a first-team All-America<br />
in both singles and doubles, and Jones, a senior<br />
from Kings Mountain, N.C., took home All-America<br />
honors in singles as the 1992 Tar Heels set<br />
a school record for victories in a season during<br />
their 25-5 campaign. <strong>Carolina</strong> finished eighth in<br />
the final Intercollegiate Tennis Association poll<br />
and made the NCAA Tournament field for the<br />
first time since 1978, beating No. 8 TCU in the<br />
round of 16 before losing to third-seeded UCLA<br />
in the quarterfinals. <strong>Carolina</strong> also claimed both<br />
the ACC regular-season and tournament cham-<br />
Former UNC head coach Allen Morris is seen<br />
here at Wimbledon in 1956 where as an unseeded<br />
player he reached the quarterfinals.<br />
pionships in 1992.<br />
Jones was named ACC Player of the Year,<br />
Most Valuable Player of the ACC Tournament<br />
and Region II Senior Player of the Year in 1992,<br />
and he advanced to the second round of the<br />
NCAA Tournament. Thornqvist finished the season<br />
ranked seventh nationally in singles and he<br />
reached the quarterfinals of the NCAA Tournament<br />
in both singles and doubles, playing the<br />
latter with Chris Mumford, an All-America selection<br />
in his own right. Thornqvist also was honored<br />
with the Rafael Osuna Award given<br />
nationally for sportsmanship by the ITA.<br />
That seemed only a prelude to Thornqvist’s<br />
brilliant senior season. Finishing 36-6 in singles<br />
and 24-6 in doubles, the Swedish native was<br />
ranked fourth nationally in singles and 10th in<br />
doubles at the season’s end. Thornqvist captained<br />
the 1993 UNC team to a 17th-place ITA<br />
poll ranking and to the Final 16 of the NCAA<br />
Tournament, beating Harvard in the first round<br />
of the tournament before falling to eventual<br />
NCAA champion Southern California in the<br />
round of 16.<br />
Individually, Thornqvist won the Rafael<br />
Osuna Sportsmanship Award from the ITA for<br />
the second straight year, the first player in the<br />
history of college tennis to win the award more<br />
than once. He captured ACC titles at No. 1 singles<br />
and No. 1 doubles, was named to the All-<br />
ACC Team for the third straight year and was<br />
the ACC Player of the Year and the ITA Region<br />
II Senior Player of the Year.<br />
As a senior, Thornqvist won the ITA national<br />
indoor singles championship, beating Georgia’s<br />
Mike Sell in the finals at Minneapolis. He was<br />
also an NCAA Tournament singles quarterfinalist<br />
for the second straight season and he was<br />
named the MVP of both the H.E. Butt Championships<br />
and the Blue/Gray Championships.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong>’s success has continued since<br />
Sam Paul took over for Allen Morris after the latter<br />
retired from coaching in 1993 to become athletic<br />
director at his alma mater, Presbyterian<br />
College.<br />
Paul, who had been an assistant for four<br />
seasons under Morris, has led the Tar Heels to<br />
NCAA Tournament bids in 1994, 1995, 1996,<br />
1997, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004,<br />
2005, 2006 and 2007. <strong>Carolina</strong> reached NCAA<br />
regional finals in 1994, 1996, 2000, 2004 and<br />
2007 was one win short in each case from<br />
reaching the tournament’s Final 16. The school<br />
hosted an NCAA regional for the first time in<br />
school history in 2004 and received a program<br />
high No. 11 NCAA Tournament seed. In 2006,<br />
Bronson Van Wyck won three ACC singles<br />
championships from 1965-67.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> History<br />
UNC hosted an NCAA regional and earned a<br />
No.11 seed. The Tar Heels won the regional<br />
and earned a berth in the Sweet 16 for the first<br />
time since 1993. The 2007 season saw <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
host a regional tournament for the third<br />
time in four years. UNC’s No. 6 seed was the<br />
best in school history in the NCAA Tournament.<br />
Paul has tutored several All-America players<br />
at <strong>Carolina</strong>, including David Caldwell, Brint Morrow,<br />
Tripp Phillips, Nick Monroe, Raian Luchici<br />
and Brad Pomeroy. Caldwell and Phillips were<br />
both outstanding singles players and both advanced<br />
far into the NCAA Tournament several<br />
times. Phillips reached the quarterfinals of the<br />
NCAA Tournament in 2000 and later that year<br />
he was named the winner of the Patterson<br />
Medal as <strong>Carolina</strong>’s outstanding senior studentathlete.<br />
He was the first tennis player so named<br />
since Vic Seixas. Monroe, who Sam Paul acknowledges<br />
as one of the hardest-working players<br />
he ever coached, was an All-America in<br />
2004, captured the Patterson Medal and<br />
reached the NCAA quarterfinals in singles.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> has finished either first, second or<br />
third in the ACC standings in every year under<br />
Paul’s tutelage with the exceptions of 1999,<br />
2003, 2005 and 2006. The 2002 team, led by<br />
senior Marcio Petrone as tournament Most Valuable<br />
Player, won <strong>Carolina</strong>’s 25th ACC championship<br />
in school history. Duke has won the<br />
second most ACC championships in history with<br />
12.<br />

Bitsy Grant and<br />
Wilmer Hines<br />
Vic Seixas<br />
George Sokol<br />
Freddie McNair<br />
Bitsy Grant, 1931<br />
When asked near the end of his tenure in 1955 to rate<br />
the best players at <strong>Carolina</strong> all-time, the veteran Tar<br />
Heel tennis coach John Kenfield chose Bitsy Grant to<br />
head up the list. Bryan “Bitsy” Grant came to <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
as a freshman in 1929 and was named an All-America<br />
in 1931. Ranked as high as No. 3 nationally in men’s<br />
singles during his post-<strong>Carolina</strong> career, Grant played<br />
on four U.S. Davis Cup teams and won three U.S. Tennis<br />
Association national clay court championships.<br />
Grant’s leadership helped the 1931 team finish undefeated<br />
and capture the Southern Conference title.<br />
Wilmer Hines, 1933<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong>’s top player in 1933, Wilmer Hines won the<br />
Southern Conference singles title and combined with<br />
Lenoir Wright to win the doubles crown. He also was<br />
named an All-America that year. The Tar Heels, in fact,<br />
won the Southern Conference crown every year of<br />
Hines’ career at <strong>Carolina</strong>, never losing a match and<br />
tying only one for a combined overall record of 52-0-1.<br />
After leaving <strong>Carolina</strong>, Hines went on to win the Italian<br />
Open championship. A great all-around athlete, Hines<br />
also lettered in basketball three times and captained<br />
the 1933 UNC basketball squad.<br />
Vic Seixas, 1948<br />
Regarded by most as the greatest player in <strong>Carolina</strong>’s<br />
tennis history, Vic Seixas was also one of the outstanding<br />
players in American tennis history. Seixas was<br />
named an All-America in 1948 and went on to an impressive<br />
professional career. Seixas won the Wimbledon<br />
singles championship in 1953 and also won the<br />
U.S. Open championship in 1954. While at <strong>Carolina</strong>,<br />
Seixas, who played under the legendary coach John<br />
Kenfield from 1947-49, won the Southern Conference<br />
singles title in 1948 and finished as the runnerup in<br />
both 1947 and 1949. He teamed with Clark Taylor to<br />
capture the league doubles crown in 1949. In 1948, he<br />
entered the NCAA Tournament as the top seed and<br />
won five matches in the tournament before dropping<br />
the championship match to the No. 1 ranked player.<br />
That same year Seixas, who came to <strong>Carolina</strong> after<br />
four years of Army Air Force duty during World War II,<br />
was the seventh-ranked men’s singles player in the<br />
U.S. amateur ranks. By 1952, he had attained the No.<br />
1 singles ranking among American players. The 55<br />
Davis Cup singles matches that he played in were the<br />
most of any American player in history and his 75 U.S.<br />
Open men’s singles victories were a record that stood<br />
until broken by Jimmy Connors in 1985.<br />
George Sokol, 1963<br />
Named an All-America in singles as a junior in 1963,<br />
George Sokol had a distinguished tennis career at <strong>Carolina</strong>.<br />
He was the Tar Heels’ first dominant presence in<br />
the Atlantic Coast Conference. From 1954 to 1964, the<br />
ACC chose a sole singles champion before going to individual<br />
flight titles. Sokol won three of those titles, capturing<br />
the crowns in 1962, 1963 and 1964. Sokol also<br />
won an outright ACC doubles title in 1963, with partner<br />
Keith Stoneman.<br />
Freddie McNair, 1970-73<br />
The only <strong>Carolina</strong> player to win All-America honors in<br />
every one of his four years in Chapel Hill, Freddie Mc-<br />
Nair ranks as one of <strong>Carolina</strong>’s finest players ever.<br />
While at <strong>Carolina</strong>, McNair combined with Rich McKee<br />
to reach the NCAA doubles finals in 1973. In the Atlantic<br />
Coast Conference, he won three individual singles<br />
titles in 1970, 1971 and 1972 and three doubles<br />
titles, one with Joe Dorn in 1970 and two with McKee<br />
in 1971 and 1972. He went on to have a distinguished<br />
professional career, attaining the world’s No. 1 doubles<br />
ranking with teammate Sherwood Stewart in the late<br />
1970s.<br />
Rich McKee, 1972-1974<br />
A native of Charlotte, N.C., Rich McKee won much<br />
fame playing collegiate tennis, earning All-America<br />
honors as a sophomore, junior and senior. The son of<br />
teaching pro Dick McKee, who reached the finals at<br />
Wimbledon after a career at the University of Miami,<br />
McKee’s play improved with each year he spent at <strong>Carolina</strong>.<br />
He became known as much for his quiet on-thecourt<br />
manner as for his tennis talent. A team captain,<br />
McKee and doubles partner Freddie McNair reached<br />
the NCAA doubles finals in 1973, and the two won the<br />
1971 and 1972 Atlantic Coast Conference doubles titles.<br />
In singles, McKee won two ACC titles, at No. 4 in<br />
1971 and No. 3 in 1972.<br />
Billy Brock, 1976<br />
A Don Skakle protege, Billy Brock was a member of<br />
2008 UNC MEN’S TENNIS • PAGE 38<br />
four Atlantic Coast Conference championship teams at<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> and was an All-America in singles in 1976.<br />
Brock, known for his baby-faced appearance and slight<br />
build, was a powerhouse on the court and a member of<br />
<strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong> teams that lost only eight dual matches<br />
in his four-year career. He played on teams which<br />
compiled four undefeated seasons in the ACC. The Tar<br />
Heels finished as high at seventh in 1974 in the national<br />
polls. Brock won two ACC individual flight singles<br />
titles, taking the championship at No. 3 in 1974 and at<br />
No. 1 in 1975. He also took home a doubles title in<br />
1975 with partner Tommy Dixon. One of the Norfolk,<br />
Va., native’s greatest wins was a second-round 1974<br />
NCAA Tournament upset of 12th-seeded Steve Mott of<br />
UCLA. Down a set, Brock, who was only a freshman,<br />
went on to win nine straight games against the favored<br />
Bruin, and won the final two sets 6-0 and 6-1.<br />
Jeff Chambers, 1985<br />
The only <strong>Carolina</strong> player in history to receive an NCAA<br />
singles invitation each of his four years as a Tar Heel,<br />
Chambers competed in the NCAA Tournament in 1984,<br />
1985, 1986 and 1987. He was named an All-America in<br />
singles in 1985 after capturing the ACC individual flight<br />
championship at No. 2 singles and going 26-8 overall.<br />
Chambers also played in the NCAA Tournament in doubles<br />
three times, missing only during the 1986 season.<br />
The St. Petersburg, Fla. native was a three-time All-Atlantic<br />
Coast Conference selection. He enjoyed his highest<br />
national ranking in doubles with partner Wayne<br />
Hearn in 1985, as the pair reached the No. 24 spot in<br />
the ITA poll.<br />
Bryan Jones, 1992<br />
One of three <strong>Carolina</strong> players in history to be named<br />
the Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament’s Most Valuable<br />
Player, Bryan Jones received that honor and many<br />
more in 1992 as the senior tri-captain led the Tar Heels<br />
to one of the school’s most successful seasons, a season<br />
in which <strong>Carolina</strong> set a school record for team wins<br />
as UNC finished 25-5. Jones also was named the ACC<br />
Player of the Year in 1992 and helped lead the team to<br />
the 1992 ACC Tournament Championship. It was the<br />
second ACC team championship for UNC during<br />
Jones’ tenure as <strong>Carolina</strong> also won the coveted trophy<br />
in 1990 when Jones was a sophomore. The Tar Heels<br />
finished the 1992 conference regular season undefeated<br />
at 8-0 and placed four players on the All-ACC<br />
team, including Jones, who also earned the honor in<br />
1990. The Kings Mountain, N.C., native was named an<br />
All-America selection in singles after finishing with a<br />
35-7 overall record. He was named the ITA Region II<br />
Volvo Tennis/Senior Player of the Year and reached the<br />
second round of the NCAA Tournament. Jones, who<br />
also won the flight No. 2 ACC singles title in 1992, was<br />
a member of a senior class that helped the Tar Heels<br />
reach the quarterfinals of the NCAA Tournament and<br />
finish eighth nationally in the ITA poll, the best finish for<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> since 1974. Over four years as a Tar Heel,<br />
Jones helped the team reach the championship match<br />
of the ACC Tournament each year.<br />
Chris Mumford, 1992<br />
A member of the 1992 Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament<br />
championship team, Chris Mumford was one of<br />
three Tar Heels to be named All-America on that squad<br />
— the most of any <strong>Carolina</strong> team in history. Mumford<br />
had a spectacular season in 1992, capturing All-America<br />
honors in doubles with teammate Roland Thornqvist<br />
after completing a 15-7 season at the No. 1<br />
doubles position. The pair were quarterfinalists at the<br />
NCAA Championships and finished the season ranked<br />
14th in the ITA poll. Mumford garnered All-ACC honors<br />
in 1992, the second such honor in his career, as the<br />
Richmond, Va. native captured the flight No. 5 ACC singles<br />
title with a 7-1 conference record. Over his fouryear<br />
career, Mumford was a member of a senior class<br />
which helped lead the Tar Heels to an 81-29 overall<br />
record and a 24-4 record in the ACC. After being unranked<br />
as freshmen, that senior class led <strong>Carolina</strong> to<br />
national rankings of 24th in their sophomore year, 17th<br />
in their junior year and eighth in their senior year.<br />
Those seniors also led <strong>Carolina</strong> in 1990 to its first ACC<br />
crown since 1978. The 1992 team’s NCAA Tournament<br />
bid was also the first since 1978 for the Tar Heels as<br />
that squad went on to become quarterfinalists nationally<br />
and set a school record with 25 wins.<br />
Roland Thornqvist, 1992-1993<br />
One of the most accomplished tennis players ever to<br />
wear <strong>Carolina</strong> Blue, Roland Thornqvist was the No. 1<br />
singles and No. 1 doubles player at <strong>Carolina</strong> for three<br />

Billy Brock<br />
Jeff Chambers<br />

David Caldwell<br />
straight years. The Farsta, Sweden native was named<br />
an All-America in both singles and doubles by the ITA<br />
in 1992 and 1993. His greatest accomplishment, however,<br />
was winning the Rafael Osuna Sportsmanship<br />
Award in both 1992 and 1993. He was the first player<br />
in the history of college tennis to win the prestigious<br />
honor twice. As a junior, he also won the Region II<br />
Arthur Ashe Jr./Head Sportsmanship Award. In 1993,<br />
he captured the singles title in the Rolex/ITA National<br />
Indoor Championships, one of the collegiate grand<br />
slam events; was named to the Rolex Collegiate All-<br />
Star Team; was the ITA Region II Senior Player of the<br />
Year and the Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the<br />
Year. Thornqvist was the ACC champion at No. 1 singles<br />
in both his sophomore and senior years and he<br />
won the No. 1 doubles crown as a senior with Daryl<br />
Wyatt. A three-time All-ACC selection, Thornqvist cocaptained<br />
the Tar Heel team as a senior and qualified<br />
for the NCAA Tournament in singles three years and in<br />
doubles twice. He was a quarterfinalist in singles in<br />
both 1992 and 1993, and in doubles in 1992. After<br />
spending a year on the ATP Tour following graduation<br />
from <strong>Carolina</strong> in 1993, Thornqvist was an assistant<br />
coach for the Tar Heels in 1995 and 1996. He left the<br />
program to become the head women’s tennis coach<br />
at the University of Kansas, but returned to the <strong>North</strong><br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> tennis program in 1998 as the head coach of<br />
the women’s team for three seasons. He is currently<br />
the women’s coach at Florida where he has led the<br />
Gators to an NCAA championship.<br />
Daryl Wyatt, 1993<br />
Although he spent only one year as a member of the<br />
Tar Heel tennis team, Washington, D.C. native Daryl<br />
Wyatt made his time in a <strong>Carolina</strong> uniform count.<br />
Wyatt was superb in doubles with partner Roland<br />
Thornqvist when Wyatt was a freshman in 1993. The<br />
pair went undefeated in Atlantic Coast Conference<br />
play that season, going 8-0 against conference foes<br />
on a team that finished 24-6 overall. In the process<br />
Wyatt earned All-America honors from the ITA. Wyatt<br />
and Thornqvist also captured the ACC individual doubles<br />
title at the No. 1 position, and qualified for NCAA<br />
doubles competition, advancing to the second round.<br />
Wyatt was 32-11 overall in singles play and finished<br />
ACC singles competition at 6-2.<br />
David Caldwell, 1994-1995<br />
Two-time All-America David Caldwell left a legacy at<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> that will be difficult to match by future Tar<br />
Heels. The Richmond, Va. native came to UNC as one<br />
of the most decorated junior tennis stars in the country,<br />
having been ranked in the top five nationally. At <strong>North</strong><br />
<strong>Carolina</strong>, he continued his winning ways, becoming<br />
the first Atlantic Coast Conference men’s tennis player<br />
in history to earn ACC Player of the Year honors three<br />
times, taking the award in 1994, 1995 and 1996. Caldwell<br />
was named an ITA All-America in singles as both<br />
a sophomore and a junior and was a doubles All-<br />
America with partner Brint Morrow as a junior. Caldwell<br />
was 16-0 in ACC singles play as a junior and senior<br />
and is the only player to ever win three individual ACC<br />
flight titles at No. 1 singles. He won the 1995 Rafael<br />

1995 and 1996 and was an NCAA quarterfinalist in<br />
1995. A three-time All-ACC selection, he compiled a<br />
116-41 (.737) record over his four years as a Tar Heel<br />
and finished his ACC career with a 32-5 (.865) record<br />
in singles and a 27-10 (.730) record in doubles. Caldwell,<br />
a 1996 <strong>Carolina</strong> graduate, was both the 1993 Region<br />
II ITA Rookie Player of the Year and the 1994<br />
Penn/ITA National Player to Watch.<br />
Brint Morrow, 1995<br />
A consistently strong performer for the Tar Heels over<br />
his four years in Chapel Hill, Brint Morrow was named<br />
All-America in doubles in 1995 with partner David<br />
Caldwell, the tandem having gone 26-10 over the season<br />
while receiving an NCAA doubles invitation. A<br />
1996 <strong>Carolina</strong> graduate whose father played tennis at<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> in the 1960s, Morrow was a three-time All-Atlantic<br />
Coast Conference selection. He won three individual<br />
ACC singles flight championships and one<br />
doubles championship. Morrow captured the flight No.<br />
3 doubles title with Caldwell and the flight No. 5 singles<br />
crown in 1993 as a freshman, the flight No. 2 singles<br />
title as a sophomore, and he went undefeated in conference<br />
play in 1995 to win the flight No. 3 singles title<br />
as a senior. He also was the recipient of the 1995<br />
Blue/Gray Classic Sportsmanship Award after competing<br />
in that prestigious tournament in Montgomery, Ala.<br />
Tripp Phillips, 2000<br />
An intense competitor and valued team leader, Tripp<br />
Phillips of Charlotte, N.C. earned All-America status<br />
his senior season. After returning from a medical redshirt<br />
campaign, Phillips had an outstanding senior season,<br />
posting a stellar 25-6 singles record at the No.1<br />
singles position. Phillips collected impressive victories<br />
over nationally No.1-ranked Daniel Anderson and No.<br />
3-rated Shuon Madden that season. Phillips’ capable<br />
leadership carried the Tar Heels to a second place<br />
ACC finish and a No. 16 national ranking. Phillips’<br />
dominating 12-2 record against ACC competetion<br />
earned him runnerup honors at No. 1 singles. However,<br />
Phillips saved his best performance of the year<br />
for last as he advanced to the quarterfinals of the<br />
NCAA Championships in singles. Phillips’ performance<br />
elevated him in the ITA rankings as he finished<br />
2000 ranked No. 12 nationally in singles. Phillips’ career<br />
and character were honored as he received the<br />
prestigious Patterson Medal and the John Van Nostrand<br />
Award. He and UNC soccer player Lorrie Fair<br />
won the 2000 Patterson Medals. He was the first tennis<br />
player so honored since Vic Seixas in 1950.<br />
Nick Monroe, 2004<br />
A native of Olathe, Kan., Nick Monroe received All-<br />
America honors from the Intercollegiate Tennis Association<br />
in 2004, the first UNC All-America in four years.<br />
Monroe won the Patterson Medal in 2004 as UNC’s<br />
outstanding senior men’s student-athlete and he<br />
reached the quarterfinals of the NCAA Tournament in<br />
singles as a senior. A three-time All-ACC selection,<br />
Monroe finished his UNC singles career with 100 wins,<br />
the second most in Tar Heel history behind David<br />
Caldwell’s 116 wins. As a senior Monroe won the Jon<br />
Van Nostrand Award from the ITA, receiving a grant to<br />
pursue his professional tennis career. He had his best<br />
season as a senior when he finished No. 21 in the ITA<br />
singles and No. 17 in the ITA doubles rankings. Monroe<br />
was the captain of the 2004 Tar Heel team. He<br />
played on four Tar Heel teams which played in the<br />
NCAA Tournament and he was a standout on UNC’s<br />
2002 ACC championship squad.<br />
Raian Luchici, 2006<br />
A transfer student from the University of Georgia,<br />
Raian Luchici, a native of Timisoara, Romania, joined<br />
the Tar Heel squad in 2004 as a sophomore. Luchici<br />
earned first-team All-America honors his senior season<br />
as a both a singles and doubles competitor with<br />
fellow senior Brad Pomeroy. He posted a stellar 25-10<br />
overall singles campaign and a 20-6 record at the No.<br />
1 spot in the lineup. The Tar Heel tandem of Luchici<br />
and Pomeroy opened the spring season ranked first<br />
in the country. They posted a domineering 26-12 doubles<br />
record, 16-8 in dual match play. Luchici finished<br />
the season nationally ranked 15th in singles and sixth<br />
in the country as a doubles tandem with Pomeroy.<br />
Luchici is the first player since 1995 to be honored as<br />
a first-team All-America in both singles and doubles in<br />
the same season since David Caldwell. He was<br />
named the Farnsworth/ Intercollegiate Tennis Association<br />
National Senior Player of the Year at the conclusion<br />
of his senior campaign in 2006; the first recipient<br />
in <strong>Carolina</strong> history. With Pomeroy, the duo was the first<br />
in <strong>Carolina</strong> history since 1973 to compete in the championship<br />
match of a collegiate grand slam event when<br />
they advanced to the finals of the Polo Ralph Lauren<br />
All-American Championships.<br />
Brad Pomeroy, 2006<br />
A native of Asheville, N.C., Brad Pomeroy was honored<br />

Tar Heel Testimonials<br />
Q & A with former UNC players<br />
on the pro tour<br />
How do you feel playing for UNC and<br />
Coach Paul has helped your chances of<br />
playing professional tennis?<br />
Raian Luchici: "My thoughts and goals<br />
when I was 16 were to not go to school and<br />
to turn pro out of high school. I knew,<br />
though, that I needed to get faster, stronger,<br />
smarter on the court, and more mature in<br />
my game. In choosing <strong>Carolina</strong> and in<br />
working with Coach Paul, I felt that all of<br />
those factors became a reality. Now I feel<br />
that I am ready to be a professional tennis<br />
player."<br />
Nick Monroe: “Coach Paul is an amazing<br />
coach who will do everything in his power<br />
to help his players become the best tennis<br />
players and best individuals they can be.<br />
He is definitely the major reason why the<br />
players from UNC who are now playing on<br />
the tour, like myself, choose to train in<br />
Chapel Hill with him and the team. It just<br />
speaks volumes for how much they trust<br />
what they have learned in college. Not only<br />
do you have a great head coach in Sam<br />
Paul, but with Tripp Phillips as the assistant<br />
coach, this has to be the best coaching<br />
staff in the country. Tripp has been one of<br />
the older guys<br />
who always<br />
helped me<br />
along the way,<br />
and I have<br />
gained so<br />
much knowledge<br />
from<br />
him. No matter<br />
what your<br />
game entails,<br />
he can spot<br />
what you<br />
need, and will<br />
help teach you<br />
how to incor-<br />

levels on tour, it is<br />

like there is no way I<br />
could have gone onto<br />

He has been putting<br />

Nick Monroe receives<br />
a check after<br />
winning one of his<br />

and getting to pick those guys brains and<br />
have that experience is invaluable. From<br />
my experience as a player, I have never
Q & A with Sam Paul<br />
What are the foundations of the great success<br />
your UNC teams have had?<br />
I believe, first and foremost, that you have to<br />
make a commitment to your players. I think<br />
if you are making sure that each kid really is<br />
on the right path to reaching his potential, all<br />
of your team goals will fall into place. Second,<br />
over the years I have established a system<br />
of training and development here at<br />
UNC. It has proven to be cyclical as well.<br />
With so many of our players doing so well in<br />
the pros, it has put us in the pretty unique position<br />
of having access to the highest level of<br />
tennis in the world. In seeing how the top<br />
players in the world train, it has helped us to<br />
tweak our own system over the years to stay<br />
up to date on what is happening at the highest<br />
levels. At UNC, we train like the pros,<br />
which means always developing games for<br />
the next level. Lastly, we work very hard to<br />
have a family like atmosphere. I think that is<br />
so important not only to the team experience<br />
our kids have, but also a driving force on why<br />
everyone involved with our program is so<br />
anxious to give back. I feel very fortunate<br />
and honored that so many Tar Heel pros stay<br />
so involved with the program and are helping<br />
to make sure the younger guys also have<br />
success in the professional ranks.<br />
seen a college program where the players<br />
feel so strongly and attribute so much of<br />
their success to their college program and<br />
college coach. For any aspiring junior tennis<br />
player with dreams of playing professionally,<br />
I believe UNC is the best program<br />
in the country.”<br />
Q- “What makes the <strong>Carolina</strong> experience<br />
so special?”<br />
Nick Monroe: “The minute I stepped foot<br />
at the tennis center, walked around the<br />
campus, and interacted with students, I immediately<br />
felt as if I was already part of the<br />
How much of an advantage is it having an<br />
Assistant Coach like Tripp Phillips?<br />
Well, you just canʼt put a price tag on it. He<br />
is still doing everything between where our<br />
guys are now and anywhere they hope to go<br />
in their tennis careers. That allows him to relate<br />
to the guys in ways that other people just<br />
canʼt. He has played the best players in the<br />
world on the biggest stages in the world. It is<br />
so easy for him to watch our guys and tell<br />
them what they arenʼt doing well enough or<br />
where they need to improve if they want to<br />
have a chance to play on Tour. Tripp is the<br />
smartest player I have ever coached. The<br />
way he sees the court is amazing, and he is<br />
a student of the game. For a student athlete<br />
with aspirations of playing professional tennis,<br />
having access to a guy like Tripp is a<br />
very unique and invaluable opportunity to our<br />
student athletes.<br />
What is the most rewarding part of your<br />
job?<br />
Again, it is the commitment you make to your<br />
players and the relationships that come with<br />
it. It is very rewarding helping these guys be<br />
the best they can be. I love the fact that virtually<br />
all of our players stay so close to the<br />
program and that being a part of that experience<br />
is something that doesnʼt end when<br />
they graduate.<br />
UNC family. Without a doubt, I feel that the<br />
UNC tennis team has the best team unity<br />
in the country, and the loyalty the guys feel<br />
toward the program is a big reason why<br />
those of us who play pro are so anxious to<br />
give back to the younger guys.”<br />
Brad Pomeroy: “I’ve never seen or heard<br />
of a program whose players feel the loyalty<br />
that a UNC player has towards their program.<br />
The environment and culture that<br />
Coach Paul has established here is unparalleled.<br />
The<br />
team is so<br />
close and I<br />
know that in a<br />

Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center<br />
In keeping with the University of <strong>North</strong><br />
<strong>Carolina</strong>’s tradition of offering quality facilities<br />
for its student-athletes, the University<br />
dedicated an indoor/outdoor tennis facility<br />
adjacent to the Friday Center on N.C.<br />
Highway 54 in Chapel Hill in September<br />
1992.<br />
The Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center, which<br />
took four years to come to fruition, was the<br />
crowning jewel in a decade-long campaign<br />
to improve the athletic facilities at the University.<br />
The tennis center, located on Don<br />
Skakle Drive, was dedicated September<br />
12, 1992, with a crowd of more than 1,000<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> tennis and athletic enthusiasts in<br />
attendance. Paul Hardin, chancellor of the<br />
University, and athletic director John Swofford<br />
officially dedicated the structure and<br />
officially named the facility that now serves<br />
as the home of the Tar Heels’ men’s and<br />
women’s tennis programs.<br />
The facility honors Ceasar Cone II, a<br />
1928 alumnus of the University who<br />
played tennis at <strong>Carolina</strong> and was a great<br />
benefactor of the school throughout his<br />
life. Cone went on to found Cone Mills in<br />
Greensboro, N.C., one of the most successful<br />
textile manufacturing entities in the<br />
South. The center also bears the name of<br />
John Kenfield, the legendary Tar Heel tennis<br />
coach who compiled a sterling record<br />
of 434-30-2 in dual-match play from 1928-<br />
55. Kenfield’s teams won 15 Southern<br />
Conference championships and two Atlantic<br />
Coast Conference team championships<br />
during his tenure. He coached the<br />
likes of Bitsy Grant, Wilmer Hines and Vic<br />
Seixas at UNC and his 1948 team finished<br />
third in the nation. Kenfield was <strong>Carolina</strong>’s<br />
first-ever full-time tennis coach, and he<br />
took over the reins of the UNC team in<br />
time to coach Ceasar Cone II in his senior<br />
season in 1928.<br />
Fund-raising on the Cone-Kenfield Tennis<br />
Center was completed in early 1991<br />
and construction on the facility began in<br />
the spring of that year.<br />
Bill Moore of Raleigh, N.C., chaired the<br />
fund-raising committee that helped bring<br />
the facility to fruition. Other members of<br />
the Tennis Fundraising Committee were<br />

UNC added a new outdoor scoreboard<br />
to the facility prior to the 2004 campaign.<br />
It is located at the sites of courts No. 1, 2<br />
and 3.<br />
The first exhibition matches were played<br />
at the dedication ceremonies, prior to the<br />
UNC-Furman football game. Since then,<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong>’s men’s tennis squad has hosted<br />
at least one tournament each fall in addition<br />
to the spring dual match schedule.<br />
Beginning in November 1992, the Tar<br />
Heels were named the host institution for<br />
the ITA Mideast Region Indoor Singles and<br />
Doubles Championships, which features<br />
the top men’s singles and doubles players<br />
from the Mideast Region. Winners of the<br />
Mideast Region Championships advance<br />
to the ITA national indoor tournaments<br />
each year. <strong>Carolina</strong> hosted that tournament<br />
every year from 1992 through 2006.<br />
The Tar Heels have hosted NCAA regional<br />
tournaments at the Cone-Kenfield<br />

Student-Athlete Services<br />
Advancing toward graduation,<br />
Building Character and<br />
Developing leadership<br />
Student-Athlete Services at<br />
the University of <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
encompasses three<br />
areas that play an integral part<br />
in the collegiate experience of<br />
every UNC student-athlete.<br />
Those three areas are Academic<br />
Development, Student-<br />
Athlete Development and<br />
Leadership Development.<br />
• ACADEMIC DEVELOPMENT<br />

The Academic Support Program is the main<br />
service utilized in advancing UNC student-athletes<br />
to graduation. The program assists student-athletes<br />
in exploring their interests and<br />
abilities, enjoying a broad educational experience,<br />
and reaching or exceeding their academic<br />
goals. "Our young people are students first and<br />
athletes second and that will always be the case<br />
at the University," says UNC Director of Athletics<br />
Dick Baddour. "That is a credit to our coaches,<br />
administrators and support staff, but most of all,<br />
our student-athletes. Their accomplishments in<br />
the classroom are very impressive."<br />
During the 2006-07 academic year, 279 <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
student-athletes made the ACC Academic<br />
Honor Roll, which requires a cumulative GPA of<br />
at least 3.0 for the year. In the fall of 2006, 178<br />

student-athletes made the Dean's List, and 151<br />
did so in the spring of 2007.<br />
The Academic Support Program is housed primarily<br />
in the Pope Academic Support Center,<br />
which is equipped with study facilities, tutorial<br />
rooms, a computer lab, a 128-seat auditorium,<br />
counselors' offices, and state-of-the-art video<br />
and computer equipment. At the center, students<br />
meet with staff to discuss course selection, major<br />
As a Morehead Scholar at UNC, Tristan Heinrich (left) traveled with fellow<br />
Morehead Scholar and UNC lacrosse player Fletcher Gregory (right) to<br />
Ecuador in the summer of 2005. The two Tar Heel athletes taught rural<br />
children geography and English as part of their responsibilities.<br />
and career exploration,<br />
academic progress and<br />
academic eligibility.<br />
The Academic Support<br />
Program helps freshmen<br />
transition from high<br />
school to college through<br />
a variety of academic programs<br />
such as academic<br />
counseling, individual tutoring,<br />
group review sessions<br />
and supplemental<br />
instruction. A member of<br />
each team serves as the<br />
Academic Team Captain,<br />
providing a strong link be-<br />
tween the Academic Support Program and the<br />
other student-athletes on the squad. The Academic<br />
Team Captain for men’s tennis for 2007-<br />
08 is Benjamin Carlotti.<br />
• STUDENT-ATHLETE DEVELOPMENT<br />
Building character in UNC student-athletes is<br />
the main charge of Student-Athlete Development.<br />
Through <strong>Carolina</strong> Outreach, Tar Heels are involved<br />
in a variety of projects and organizations<br />
on campus and in the community. The UNC Department<br />
of Athletics has partnered with<br />
Gatorade and the UNC School of Public Health<br />
for a national pilot program called Get Kids in Action,<br />
in which Tar Heel student-athletes visit local<br />
elementary schools to encourage children to exercise.<br />
The <strong>Carolina</strong> Dreams program allows<br />
young patients at UNC Children’s Hospitals to attend<br />
Tar Heel sporting events with UNC studentathletes.<br />
Other recent activities have included<br />
building a house with Habitat for Humanity, cooking<br />
meals at Ronald McDonald House and cleaning<br />
up the roadways through the<br />
Adopt-a-Highway program.<br />
Student-Athlete Development also seeks to<br />
develop student-athletes on a personal level<br />
through a variety of speakers who address issues<br />
like nutrition, gambling, relationship communication<br />
and substance use. Career<br />
Development helps UNC student-athletes look<br />
beyond college with resources such as career<br />
counseling and workshops on resume writing<br />
and interviewing skills.<br />
• LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT<br />
The primary outlet for Leadership Development<br />
is the <strong>Carolina</strong> Leadership Academy,<br />
started at UNC in 2004. As the nation's premier<br />
leadership development<br />
program in collegiate athletics,<br />
the <strong>Carolina</strong> Leadership<br />
Academy<br />
develops, challenges and<br />
supports student-athletes,<br />
coaches and staff<br />
in their continual quest to<br />
become world class leaders<br />
in athletics, academics<br />
and life. The<br />
Academy consists of<br />
three programs:<br />
CREED Program<br />
Leadership training begins<br />
in the freshman year.<br />
All leadership begins with<br />
personal leadership,<br />
therefore freshmen are<br />
taught skills to effectively<br />
lead themselves.<br />
Training consists of monthly meetings featuring<br />
keynote speakers and small group discussion.<br />
Upperclass student-athletes serve as peer mentors<br />
and discussion leaders. Special focus is on<br />
responsibility, accountability, making good<br />
choices, ethics and character building.<br />
Rising Stars Program<br />
Designed for a select group of "high potential"<br />
sophomores and juniors, the program provides<br />
future leaders with insights, strategies and skills<br />
necessary to become effective leaders. The program<br />
includes monthly meetings, interactive exercises<br />
and action learning experiences.<br />
Veteran Leaders Program<br />
This program is designed for team captains
The 2003-04 Tar Heel men’s tennis team participated in a community<br />
service project in which UNC student-athletes assisted in the building of<br />
a Habitat For Humanity house in the greater Chapel Hill community.<br />
and veteran student-athletes. It provides advanced<br />
leadership training and support, teaches<br />
the critical skills and insights necessary to be effective<br />
vocal leaders and provides a strong peer<br />
network. Student-athletes meet regularly to learn<br />
and reinforce leadership principles and share<br />
successes, frustrations and lessons.<br />
<strong>Carolina</strong> CREED<br />
As a University of <strong>North</strong> <strong>Carolina</strong> student-athlete,<br />
I pledge to make every effort to abide by the <strong>Carolina</strong><br />
CREED as a show of my commitment to<br />
the University, the Department of Athletics, my<br />
team and myself.<br />
C - I will know and embrace the tradition and culture<br />
of this great University and its athletics department<br />
R - I will respect myself and others<br />
E - I will pursue excellence in my academic work<br />

Senior Tristan Heinrich receives congratulations from UNC Chancellor James Moeser after winning the<br />
Athletic Director’s Scholar-Athlete Award for men’s tennis in back-to-back school years, 2006-07 and<br />
2007-08. Heinrich is a senior double majoring in economics and political science.<br />

Student-Athlete Services<br />
• STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING<br />
Under the direction of the UNC Olympic sports strength<br />
and conditioning staff, Tar Heel student-athletes get outstanding<br />
coaching intended to help maximize their physical<br />
potential. The staff evaluates <strong>Carolina</strong> student-athletes in a<br />
variety of ways, including the use of specialized software for<br />
lifting and running and video analysis to encourage steady<br />
progress toward reaching optimum preparation for competition.<br />
The men’s tennis team trains at the Olympic sports weight<br />
room in Kenan Field House. In addition to top-of-the-line<br />
strength equipment, the Kenan-based center boasts a five-<br />
Greg Gatz<br />
lane, 25-yard rubberized surface for teaching and performing<br />
warm-up activities, acceleration drills and agility movements.<br />
Year-round training produces athletes who are prepared to compete successfully<br />
and safely.<br />
Greg Gatz is the Director of Strength and Conditioning for Olympic Sports and<br />
oversees the program. He is assisted by Steve Gisselman.<br />
• SPORTS MEDICINE<br />
The Tar Heels receive excellent care<br />
from one of the country’s best sports<br />
medicine staffs.<br />
Dr. Tim Taft, Director of Sports Medicine,<br />
oversees a comprehensive<br />
program<br />
