SEATTLE - (Nov. 14) The Seattle University Men’s Tennis Program has received a signed National Letter of Intent (NLI) from high school senior Colton Weeldreyer, as announced Monday by head coach Adam Reeb. Weeldreyer will enroll at Seattle U for the 2017-18 academic year and begin his freshman season next fall.
Weeldreyer, from nearby Auburn, Washington, is currently finishing his senior year at Auburn Mountainview High School. He played one year of varsity high school tennis as the singles number one and finished seventh in the state before switching to the Northwest High Performance Tennis Club team.
In addition, he has competed for the national team and is a two-time 2016 level three and four doubles champion. Most recently, he competed in the boy’s 18’s national hard court championships in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
Head coach Adam Reeb is thrilled to welcome Colton to the Seattle U family.
"Colton is a great player who we're super excited to have joining us, said Reeb.” “He's one of the top local guys, and we've been recruiting him for a while. He will come in and make an immediate impact for us in both singles and doubles. Colton has a high level of match experience and he has experienced success throughout his junior career. He brings a professional attitude and work ethic to our program, and he will help our team continue to get stronger and stronger as we push towards our first WAC championship. Colton is a big piece of the puzzle for our ever improving program."
