Emory University head women's tennis coach Amy Bryant  has announced the appointment of Jordan Wylie as assistant coach.  Wylie will begin her duties on July 1.

Wylie is no stranger to Emory women's tennis, having enjoyed a fine four-year career (2009-10 through 2012-13) with the Eagles program.  During her tenure as a collegiate player, Wylie was a two-time All-America singles player (2011 & 2012) after advancing to the Round 16 at the NCAA Championships.  She garnered three All-University Athletic Association honors in singles, including first-team berths in 2012 & 2013, and was a three-time all-league performer in doubles, garnering first-team acclaim in 2011 and 2013.  She was the No. 12-ranked Division III singles player at the end of her junior season and was slotted in the No. 25 spot after her senior campaign.  In addition, Wylie was tabbed by the ITA as the Atlantic South Region Senior Player of the Year.

She posted 20 or more singles victories in two seasons and finished with a career won-lost mark of 70-40, with her win total ranking 14^th all-time in the history of the program.  She compiled a 62-37 ledger in doubles, the 18^th-most victories on the Eagles' all-time chart.  Emory registered an 82-22 record during Wylie's career and was a national runner-up on two occasions.

"I feel so fortunate to have Jordan join our full- time coaching staff," Bryant said. "She knows the program better than anyone and shares a special bond with me and the players as an alumnae.  This will be a seamless transition for our program and, with Jordan's continued involvement, I am confident that our program will continue to vie for national championships in the future."

A native of nearby Roswell, Wylie attended Centennial High School.  She earned undergraduate degrees from Emory in May of 2013 as a double major in Psychology and Anthropology.  Wylie was a volunteer coach for Emory during the 2013-14 school year that saw the Eagles claim the program's sixth D-III national championship and establishing a school record for wins with an overall record of 28-2.

Wylie takes over for Christy Lynch who assumed an assistant coaching position at her alma mater of Georgia Tech.
