Bio

In 2008 as a junior, Wang partnered with Guillaume Schils ’09 to win the NCAA Division III doubles championship. As a senior, he became the first Stag to ever win the singles title at The Ojai Tennis Tournament. In each of his four seasons, Wang was selected as Team MVP and was an All-American to go along with being a three-time SCIAC Player of the Year and two-time CMC Male Athlete of the Year award recipient. He ended his CMS career fourth all-time in singles victories (92), third in matches played (126), and 10th in career winning percentage at .730. He ranked first all-time in doubles victories and matches played for an individual (102 and 142) and team (88 and 122 with Schils). Upon graduation, he ranked second all-time in combined singles and doubles victories for a career (194). The Stags went undefeated in SCIAC and never finished worse than fifth nationally during Wang’s career.
