Welcome to a brand-new series on Baslinjen.com, where we take a comprehensive look at college tennis. The series is titled "College Tennis: A Path to Follow?". Throughout the fall, we will be talking with a variety of individuals from different backgrounds, experiences, and roles, all centered around the same focus—college tennis. Our aim is to explore the advantages and disadvantages of choosing this pathway to further one’s tennis career.

All parts of the series will be published on http://www.baslinjen.com. Some episodes will be in podcast format, others as videos, and some as written reports.

We kick off the series by talking with Alex Gruskin, the driving force behind Cracked Racquets. Gruskin is one of the foremost experts on college tennis, closely following everything related to the sport. In this episode he provides us with all the latest information on recent and upcoming rule changes, explains the different divisions and leagues, discusses the pros and cons of being higher or lower in a line-up, and shares stories of players who have transitioned to professional careers. This is a jam-packed episode you won't want to miss!

If you wanna see this episode thru video that is possible if you watch it on Spotify.
