Stony Brook Tennis

“We aim to develop athletes who not only achieve success in their sport but also grow as leaders, scholars and community members. Having the structure, support and resources needed to help our student-athletes grow, compete at the highest levels and experience the best of college sports is essential. Your financial contribution is crucial to our growth and directly impacts who we can recruit, who we can compete against and what we can provide our student-athletes. Expanding connections with our community of friends, family and alumni is very important, and we look forward to continuing to grow together.”

—Tennis Head Coach Thiago Dualiby

Our student-athletes require comprehensive support to achieve their full potential. With your generous financial contribution, Stony Brook Athletics and Coach Dualiby can effectively meet these needs by providing holistic support to every member of the team. This includes, but is not limited to, the following areas:

• Assistant Coach: Our top fundraising priority is securing a full-time position for Coach Mauricio to maximize the development of our student-athletes and program growth and performance.
• Livestreaming: We are exploring the implementation of livestreaming technology through platforms such as SwingVision or PlaySight. This initiative would allow alumni, family members, and supporters around the US and the world to follow our matches. Cost: Approx. $4,000/year
• Stringing Machine: Our players restring their own racquets through the year, a new model would make this much more efficient and precise. Approximately $3,000/year.
• Sport Psychology Resources: Mental performance is a critical component of success in collegiate athletics. Support for a SPARC Sports subscription would provide our student-athletes with access to sport psychology and mental performance resources designed to improve confidence, focus, resilience, and competitive performance. Approximately $1,500/year
• Spring Break Competitive Trip: $20,000/year
