Jack finished his sophomore year ranked No 6 in the ITA rankings. He played at the No 1 position for TCU in post season play going unbeaten with 9 wins and winning TCUs first NCAA Team National Championships and No 1 ranked team, including defeating the end-season No 1 ranked Spizzirri in the Team Championships final. He was voted the Most Outstanding Player at the NCAA Team Championships. His 35 singles wins are a Big 12 era record for TCU for most wins in a season and the third most of any player in the season. During the year he achieved ITA All American status in singles and was unanimously voted to the All Big 12 first team and Indoor Nationals All-Tournament team. He also finished runner-up at the ITA National Fall Championships.

Yes. He did pretty well in men's ITFs and then suddenly disappeared and it took me a while to work out why!
