Coaching Changes:
After a summer of "musical coaches" that has rivaled all others, I am bowing to the experts. For a complete list of the new Head Coaches, see the ITA Website. Here are some new Assistant Coaches (which are not listed on that site):
-Former Duke standout Ramsey Smith is returning to that school as Assistant Coach to the men's team; -Kent Kinnear, an 11 year ATP touring pro who has experience in player development, has been named the new Assistant Men's Coach at Illinois.

Coach Anger was a three-time All-American at the University of Southern California and then played eight years on the pro tour, earning an ATP singles ranking of high of 23. He has been the coach at Washington for 11 seasons.
