Luke and AnonymousWhile there are a lot of educational consultants and companies that make a business out of selling education and recruiting advice and services, we are motivated by the fact that we both wish a book like this existed while we were going through the recruitment process. We had very different, but also very difficult recruiting processes. Both of us have had incredible experiences playing college tennis, and we want to make sure that opportunity is available for all who have the ability to play college tennis but need help with the first steps or with getting started. We thought it was about time that someone came out with a clear guide for how to navigate the system and lower the barriers of entry for players around the world.Luke graduated from Princeton in 2018. He was born in Idaho but grew up and was recruited from San Jose, Costa Rica. For the first half of high school, he attended a "regular" school playing varsity soccer, basketball, and volleyball.
