Last year he was the state finalist in singles and doubles in the state of Mississippi High School Tournament. In the 16s age group, he was ranked 17th nationally, and number one in the south.
“We could not be happier in adding these two young men to our program,” said Clemson Head Coach Chuck Kriese. “We look forward to the next four years in working with these fine players. Ryan is from Charleston, SC and has a solid foundation in tennis. He will be able to play at the high level on our team. Robbye has a great work ethic and is an outstanding player.”
