Every year, hundreds of high school tennis players are recruited to play for the top college teams, with generous athletic scholarships and the potential of becoming professional tennis players.
But for the thousands of other high school tennis players, there are many opportunities to play in college that go unnoticed.
On Friday, June 24, the USTA Midwest Section will host its 2016 College Showcase, giving students from across the region a chance to learn about the wide range of opportunities in college tennis. The showcase will be held at the Barbara S. Wynne Tennis Center, North Central High School: 1801 E. 86th Street Indianapolis, Indiana 46240.
