Alejandro Bejar was announced as a graduate assistant for the Lee University Tennis teams by head coach Patric Hynes.
"I am thrilled to have Alejandro with us," said Hynes. "He had a brilliant career at Presbyterian College playing for a couple of the best young coaches going around. As a player he was part of a program that won its first ever Division I conference championship for any sport in school history. On top of that, he achieved a stellar GPA and represented his school with class. He's a high achiever who comes highly recommended and I can't wait to see what he brings to our teams."
Bejar played the last four years at Presbyterian College and posted a career record of 61-35. His win total is the second-most in program history. As a freshman in 2015, he went 24-2 to set the Presbyterian singles record with 24 wins in the season and a winning percentage of .923.
The native of Madrid, Spain, earned the designation of Team MVP as a freshman and was Player of the Year across the Presbyterian Athletic Department following his sophomore year. He was part of the 2017 Blue Hose squad that captured the school's first Big South Tournament Title in any sport and advanced to the first round of the NCAA Division I Championship to face the University of Texas.
Bejar was one of the team's co-captains his senior season. He served on the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) for three years and was president of the Business club his senior year. He graduated with a 3.6 GPA in Business Administration and has entered Lee's Master of Business Administration program.
"I am excited to be working with such a successful program," said Bejar. "I am happy to be working at a school that is so involved with the community that meets my personal and professional standards. Lee is a beautiful place and I am ready to bring some victories home to Cleveland."
