Wesley College Names Gail Hill Head Coach Of Men's & Women's Tennis Programs

Wesley College Athletic Director Mike Drass has announced that Gail Hill has been named the Wolverines head men's & women's tennis coach.  Hill brings over 40 years of tennis experience to the program and replaces Kelley Cole who resigned to focus on her teaching career.

A retired science teacher, Hill coached both tennis and field hockey at Lake Forest High School for 20 years and brought home a pair of Southern Division and Henlopen Conference titles. For the first three years of her tenure at LFHS, she also coached gymnastics at Smyrna High School.

A member of the Delaware Interscholastic Athletic Association tennis committee, Hill was a five-sport athlete at SUNY Cortland where she excelled at tennis, lacrosse, gymnastics, field hockey and track & field.

Hill and her husband, Alvin, have three children: Abigail, Samuel and Adam.  Abigail, who now works in Wesley's Alumni Relations office, was a standout field hockey player for the Wolverines from 2009-11 where she tallied 39 points on 17 goals and five assists.

The Wolverines' women's tennis team opens the season on March 18 with a road match against Capital Athletic Conference rival Mary Washington while the men start the year at home against Eastern University on March 23.
