UND Head Coach
Tom Wynne
The name “Tom Wynne” and UND tennis
go hand-in-hand. In his 17th year as head
coach of the Fighting Sioux, Wynne guided
UND to North Central Conference
championships in 2008, 2004 and 2003 and
NCAA Division II postseason appearances in
each of the last seven seasons.
In addition to his head coaching duties at UND, Wynne also serves as
UND’s assistant director of academic services. He is also the head tennis
professional at the Centre Court Fitness Club and owner of the
Centre Court Pro Shop.
A four-year letterwinner at UND, in 1979 Wynne led the Fighting
Sioux to their first NCC title in 42 years. After graduating with a journalism
degree in 1978, Wynne played professional tennis on the
Marlboro Tour in France in 1980. He served as an assistant coach for
five seasons, leading UND to conference titles in 1984 and 1985.
Wynne was then named head coach of both men’s and women’s team
sin 1986, a position he held until 1990 when the tennis programs were
discontinued. When women’s tennis returned to UND in 1998, Wynne
was named head coach.
In 2000 Wynne and his brother, Tim Wynne, were named winners of
the Word Burton Junior Development Award for their work with local
junior tennis program. The award is given out annually by the United
States Tennis Association (USTA) Northern Section to individuals or
organizations that promote and achieve success in the development of
junior tennis players.
A Grand Forks native, Wynne was the NCC’s No. 1 singles champion
in 1976 and was runner-up in 1975 and 1977. He also qualified for the
NCAA national tournament in 1977.
Wynne was inducted to the University of North Dakota Athletic Hall
of Fame in 1999.

2009 UND Tennis Preview
The Fighting Sioux embark on their first season as
a Division I program in 2009 and will do so with
a roster that includes six returnees from last
year’s North Central Conference championship team
and NCAA Division II tournament qualifier.
Leading the charge will be seniors Emily Callison and
Katie Wessman and juniors Katie Callison and Molly
Maurer. The Callison sisters each took NCC runner-up
honors in singles competition last year with Katie
Callison and Wessman teaming to win a conference
doubles championship. Maurer was one of three Sioux
to capture a conference singles title and the only one
returning to this year’s team.
Other returning players include junior Nichole Shotwell
and sophomore Amy Boyer. Both will have the opportunity
to contribute after seeing limited action in 2008.

past two seasons at the University of Minnesota Duluth
while Reisenauer enjoyed a standout prep career at
Dickinson (N.D.) High School.

10 Division I opponents UND will face prior to competing
in the season-ending Division I Independent
