Posted: Updated:
LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. -

Georgia Gwinnett College has named a coach for its new men's and women's tennis teams.

Athletics director Darin Wilson says former Division I coach Chase Hodges will lead the new Grizzlies teams. Hodges has 14 years of collegiate coaching experience, including 11 as a head coach.

Hodges comes to Georgia Gwinnett College from Georgia State University in Atlanta, where he ended his three-year tenure by being named Colonial Athletic Association Co-Coach of the Year in April.

Before GSU, Hodges spent four years at the helm of the Drake University program, where he guided the Bulldogs to a Missouri Valley regular-season or conference tournament title in each season. He had an 85-17 overall record.

The Grizzlies' inaugural tennis seasons will begin next spring. Hodges has already started signing players.
