Raleigh Grossbaum Named Assistant Men's Tennis Coach

HANOVER, N.H. – Xander Centenari '13, the John Kenfield and Chuck Kinyon Head Coach of Men's Tennis, has announced the hiring of Raleigh Grossbaum as an assistant coach.

"I'm thrilled that Raleigh has accepted this position and will join our program this summer," Centenari said. "Raleigh brings a growth mindset, an excellent work ethic, and an ability to connect with and help develop tennis players on and off the court. He has a wealth of experience in coaching and a deep technical and tactical knowledge of the game of tennis that our program will benefit from greatly."

Grossbaum spent the 2020-21 season as a volunteer assistant at the University of Georgia, assisting with team practices while also working one-on-one with the student-athletes. The Bulldogs finished the regular season on a six-match winning streak, ended up with a record of 17-7 (8-4 SEC), and made it all the way to the NCAA Quarterfinal. It was Georgia's best season since 2016-17 (22-8).

Prior to that, he was the head coach at Southern Utah (2019-20). The Thunderbirds started the year by winning three of their first five matches of the spring but had the remainder of their season canceled once COVID-19 hit. A few months later, the men's and women's tennis programs were discontinued.

Grossbaum played his collegiate tennis at Ferris State in Big Rapids, Michigan. He helped the Bulldogs to three Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference men's tennis championships, two NCAA Division II Elite Eight appearances, and an NCAA Division II Final Four appearance in 2017.

He graduated in 2017 with a bachelor of science in Professional Tennis Management.
