TicketsCINCINNATI – Claire Koscielski is set to continue her academic and athletic careers with the University of Cincinnati tennis program, head coach Eric Toth announced today. Koscielski, a four-star recruit according to TennisRecruiting.net, hails from Indianapolis, Indiana, and currently competes for Cathedral High School.
A three-time IHSAA team state finals qualifier, Koscielski is currently rated as the #150 recruit nationally according to TennisRecruiting.net and ranks #3 in the state of Indiana. Koscielski has led a decorated career thus far. She was instrumental in Cathedral's 2016 state championship at the #3 singles position as a freshman. In 2017, the team fell in the state semifinals where she played from the #3 singles position. 2018 saw Cathedral back in the state finals where Claire played on the #1 doubles team as the team finished as the state runner-up.
Koscielski also competed in the IHSAA individual state finals in 2018 where she took home the state championship in doubles with her partner Meg Coleman.
// COACH TOTH ON KOSCIELSKI
"I am extremely excited and grateful that Claire has committed to being a Bearcat. Claire has some pretty impressive tennis bloodlines. Both her parents and her two sisters all competed on the court at the Division I level. What was clear in recruiting Claire is that tennis is a priority in her family's life and her life. Claire has flown a bit under the radar in my estimation and has a terrific opportunity to grow her game in college and really contribute to our program."
