The freshmen are at Wichita State because they're serious about tennis. They are also young and new to the United States, so they bring that freshness and enthusiasm that can rejuvenate a team.
"Hungry," men's tennis coach Darragh Glavin said. "They're exciting to watch. Five new guys – they bring talent, but also hunger."
Wichita State (2-3) plays Texas Tech (3-3) at 1 p.m. today (Friday) at Genesis Rock Road. Glavin, entering his third season at WSU, believes the Shockers are deeper and more talented with returners at the top of the lineup and the infusion of newcomers.
