| William Haselbauer - UniversIty of Tennessee Club Tennis Team |
 |
William Haselbauer is the President of the University of Tennessee Club Tennis Team and is in his final year of graduate school studying plant sciences. This is their first full year for their club. Before beginning his graduate studies at Tennessee, he was the President of the University of Minnesota Club Tennis Team where he completed his undergraduate degree. The University of Tennessee Tennis Club is open to all students who have an interest in tennis. From just 10 members in spring of 2008 to nearly 50 members now, the Tennis Club has seen tremendous growth in the past year. The Club consists of a competitive and practice team. The competitive players are involved with the practice team in that they run the practice team practices. This helps bridge the gap between the two teams. In addition to our time spent on the court, they also have gatherings off the court to build an even more unified team. After a great first year, they are looking forward to next year by expanding their club, match schedule, event schedule, and even plan to host a major college club tennis tournament.

His hometown is Pasadena, California, and he loves sports in general, but has a great passion for tennis.
