NORFOLK, Va. – Old Dominion men's tennis head coach Dominik Mueller announced the addition of Oliver Nolan (Birmingham, Eng.), who is a graduate transfer from UNC Asheville with one year of eligibility remaining. Nolan will join the Monarchs in the Fall of 2021.
Nolan won the 2018 ITA Oracle Fall Nationals with his partner Henry Patton. With an overall record of 18-2, the tandem was ranked as high as No. 2 in the country and finished the year ranked No. 9, while being named 2019 ITA All-Americans. Nolan was also named to the All-Big South First Team.
"We couldn't be more excited to add a player of Oli's caliber and experience," exclaimed Mueller. "Oli was very professional throughout the entire recruiting process and knew what he wanted. I think he will be a perfect addition to our experienced roster next year. His doubles accomplishments obviously speak for itself, but he is also a tremendous singles player, who has proven to win big high in the lineup throughout his entire career. He will make a huge impact in singles, doubles and the classroom for our program."
In singles, Nolan has played on top of the lineup throughout his entire collegiate career and finished last year with a 5-1 record at position No. 2 before the season got cancelled.
"I'm extremely excited to join the ODU tennis team," Nolan said. "To have the opportunity to compete at the highest level of college tennis is a privilege and I look forward to working very hard to achieve the team's goals!"
