2011 Class A Boys Tennis Coach of the Year

          Jeff has been involved in the Blue Devil tennis program on and off again for the past 20 years.  He is married to Lynn and has three tennis fanatics in his family in Casey ( a Sophomore at Gustavus), Cody (an incoming freshman at St. Scholastica, and Callie a 7th grader.  His involvement in tennis is due to his children and Coach Dave Gunderson.  Gundy taught me the ropes and I worked with his programs for a number of years since being hired back in 1986.  During my years, I have been active in the USTA program and along with Lynn we have taken two teams to National tournaments in Arizona.  If I have to look at what got me hooked, it was the USTA program and the kids involved.  Tennis has given my family a great outlet to enjoy together along with a place to be involved with other students in the Virginia area.  

          I have coached just about 75 seasons since starting back in 1986.  I have coached Football for 15 years at a variety of levels, was a track coach for 20 years, was involved in the girls and boys basketball programs for 25 years, coached girls tennis for 7 years and have been the Head Boys tennis coach for 4 years.  Coaching is something I have always looked forward to and take great pride in.  Along with teaching, it has been a career that I have enjoyed more each year.  It is a profession like no other. It gives me a chance to help and watch young students grow in a variety of ways.  

          During my tenure as the Head Tennis coach, I have been blessed with some of the finest young men in Virginia's recent history.  Great young men and the best coaching staff make this job easy.
