ECU tennis secures two top 25 recruiting classes

The East Carolina University men and women’s tennis teams are having a busy offseason, as the men secured the No. 25 mid-major recruiting class and the women secured the No. 14 mid-major class. Both teams will look to improve on good spring seasons, and to fill the shoes of the players who graduated.

The men’s class consist of two players: Simon Labbe from Canada, and Diogo Marques from Portugal. The players will have big shoes to fill as the team attempts to fill the void left by alumni Freddie McGeehan and Kasey Countee. Head coach Shawn Heinchon said he is not too focused on the rating of his teams recruiting class, but is instead interested in filling the roles left by the two seniors.
