Two weeks ago, TRN and Inspiration Academy began publishing our annual recruiting class rankings.

We continue our rankings today with a look at the top college recruiting classes from the "mid-major" programs - programs outside of the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, Ivy League, Pac-12, and SEC.

Many mid-major schools compete at a very high level. May saw August Holmgren of San Diego win five matches against Power 5 opponents to reach the singles final of the NCAA Championships, while the VCU doubles tandem of Charles Bertimon and Maxence Bertimon earned its way to the semifinal round. Mid-major programs have won national titles in the singles, doubles, and team events at the D-I level.

And, of course, many quality teams also compete in Division II, Division III, NAIA, NJCAA, and CCC - where they vie for titles every year.

Top 25 Men’s Mid-Major Recruiting Classes (through May 23)

Today, the Tennis Recruiting Network and Inspiration Academy are excited to present the Top 25 Mid-Major Men's Recruiting Classes for 2022. The mid-major conferences for tennis include programs from the AAC, Atlantic 10, Atlantic Sun, Big East, Big Sky, Big South, Big West, CAA, C-USA, Horizon, MAAC, MAC, MEAC, Mountain West, Northeast, OVC, Patriot, SoCon, Southland, SWAC, Summit, Sun Belt, WCC, and WAC conferences from NCAA Division I - as well as all programs outside of NCAA Division I.

We solicited the help of a number of college tennis coaches in coming up with this list - and we thank them for their help. As is our policy, these rankings do not consider incoming transfer students or players who competed on college rosters in 2022-23.
