The storied men’s tennis program at the University of Southern California is documented in this first-ever book chronicling a college tennis program. Featuring interviews and anecdotes from Trojan tennis legends such as Alex Olmedo, Stan Smith, Dennis Ralston, Bob Lutz, Rick Leach, and Stevie Johnson as well as legendary coaches George Toley, Dick Leach and Peter Smith. This book is organized chronologically, taking readers from the early decades following the founding of the program in 1898 through the final match of the 2016-2017 season. While the progress of the team is central, readers will be fascinated by the biographical details of the key figures in each time period, which are enhanced by extensive footnotes drawing from archival materials, including personal letters, scrapbooks, published news stories, and original interviews.
S. Mark Young, Ph.D. holds the George Bozanic and Holman G. Hurt Chair in Sports and Entertainment Business at the Marshall School of Business, University of Southern California. He is the official historian of the USC Men's Tennis Team, and chairs the university's Oversight Committee on Athletic Academic Affairs, an organization that reviews and suggests policies and procedures to facilitate the academic progress of all student athletes at USC. A former Division III collegiate player player, Young captained the tennis team at Oberlin College in Ohio in the mid-1970s.
