UTEP women’s tennis hired former New Mexico State head coach Ivan Fernandez to take over as head coach.
Fernandez ran the show for the Aggies for seven years, which included four consecutive berths in the Western Athletic Conference championship match during his time.
“Ivan is a great fit for us,” said Athletic Director Bob Stull. “He has annually had NMSU in the WAC championship picture, and he’s looking forward to leading UTEP Tennis to a new level of achievement. He brings a built-in knowledge of our program and players that will allow him to really hit the ground running, recruiting and planning for the 2017-18 season.
