College Tennis: Some facts you might not know

  • Nearly 80 percent of all collegiate tennis players in the United States are foreign.
  • Texas State fits the bill with only two of its eight athletes hailing from America.
  • One of said players is Anyssa Peele, a senior from Austin.
  • Peele is 15-1 this season after struggling during her junior season with the Bobcats. She went 5-11 in singles matches and 14-3 in doubles.
  • Peele was originally recruited by Texas State but chose to go to the University of Rhode Island instead. She changed her mind after her sophomore season and found a scholarship waiting for her with the Bobcats.
