The team didn’t just rely on one star player; rather there were five star players to boast. The depth of this team could be one of the biggest reasons as to why they were so successful. Overall, with the help of extremely talented players, a great coach, perfect team chemistry, and hours of hard work, the 1972 Trinity Men’s Tennis Team helped pave the way for an extremely successful tennis program for years and years to come leading all the way up to the present day.
