Butler University Athletics announced the hiring of Daniel Pollock as the new head men’s tennis coach in a press release on Aug. 6. Former coach Parker Ross resigned in June to “pursue an opportunity outside of Butler”.

Pollock was most recently an assistant coach at the University of Utah and was named the 2018 ITA Mountain Region Assistant Coach of the Year. He had been part of Utah’s staff since 2014.

The Bulldogs return all nine players from last year’s team that went 14-7.
