Over the course of five weeks, GoGriz.com is introducing you to the players who will make up the 2014-15 Montana women's tennis team. Today: Hannah Sulz of Qualicum Beach, British Columbia.
It's a name that likely won't sound familiar. Sulz is not a returner, and she is not one of coach Steve Ascher's three-player recruiting class.
Rather she was recruited by Ascher heavily before Sulz opted to play at Nebraska in 2013-14. She has since accepted admissions to Montana and will join the Grizzlies this fall as a sophomore.
Sulz, an ITA Scholar Athlete in her only season playing for the Cornhuskers, won't compete for Montana in 2014-15. Instead she'll be in the background while practicing with the team.
As for her name, it won't be unfamiliar for long.
"We were very active recruiting Hannah before she chose to attend the University of Nebraska for her freshman year," Ascher said.
"Hannah comes from a very solid family and has shown a strong work ethic and desire to improve her game. We believe she will be a super addition to the team, and we look forward to start working with her in the fall."
