MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Middle Tennessee has been graced with plenty of outstanding foreign tennis players, particularly in doubles competition. One duo helped pave the way for that.
David McNamara and Julius Robberts may have grown up on different continents – McNamara is Australian, while Robberts hails from South Africa – but when they connected on the court in Murfreesboro, they were unstoppable.
They'll be recognized on Saturday with five other former MT student-athletes as the newest class inducted into the Blue Raider Hall of Fame.
"It's a great honor to be inducted, first of all, and to be inducted with David means the world to me," Robberts said.
