November 09, 2022 | Women's Tennis
SEATTLE – Husky Women's Tennis Head Coach Robin Stephenson announced the signing of one new Husky for the 2023-24 season on National Signing Day. Alexia Jacobs from Calgary, Canada will be a freshman for the Dawgs next fall.
Jacobs has a career-high ITF Junior Rankings of No. 132. She has captured a number of junior titles including the J3 Montreal 2021 tournament.
"Alexia and her family are exactly the type of people that we want to be part of our program," says Stephenson. "She is a high character person with a strong work ethic and a desire to be the best that she can be. Her communication in the recruiting process was some of the best I have seen, and she is a high-level person in so many ways. She wants to maximize her potential and is committed to the goals of the program and the process it takes to get there.
"Alexia has a huge game with so many weapons and we are so excited to start the journey with her and see how her game can take off. She has been one of the top juniors in Canada over the years and has had so much success in both singles and doubles at the junior level and we know that she is going to flourish in the college environment and being part of a team."
