“We’re really excited to have Arshak joining our program next fall,” said head coach Adam Reeb. “He’s the highest ranked men’s recruit in school history and that shows all our efforts hitting the recruiting trail have already started to pay off. We look for Arshak to make an immediate impact in our program. He has achieved a high level of success in elite junior, adult, and professional tournaments around the world, and he will bring those experiences to our team. He plays a physical style of tennis and that, couple with his work ethic and professionalism, is exactly what we are looking for in our student-athletes.”
