East Carolina University’s men’s tennis team has an extraordinary student athlete from London, England, who has been making waves with the Pirates since transfering from the University of Ohio his junior year.

Freddie McGeehan, a 20-year-old economics major, started playing tennis at the young age of eight. Since his family lived about two minutes away from the tennis club, McGeehan said they were at the tennis club all the time. He said his family, along with his friends, were very supportive by watching him play and driving him to and from matches.
