The USTA South Carolina College Showcase continues to create opportunities for junior players to connect with college coaches and pursue their dream of playing at the next level.
Mia El-Kheddiwi (Wando High School) signed with Coker University.
Mia’s father, Mehdi El-Kheddiwi, a South Carolina tennis professional, shared how important the showcase was in her recruiting journey:
“The USTA South Carolina college showcase allowed our daughter Mia to fulfill her college tennis aspirations. Without this unique and groundbreaking program, we could not have made the personal connections needed to begin and continue conversations with college coaches. Without the showcase, Mia would not have gotten her chance. Thank you, Amanda Morelli and USTA SC!”
