William Jewell College head tennis coach Paul Worstell announced Monday afternoon the signing of Glendale High School (Springfield, Mo.) tennis standout, Hayden Fulk for the 2016-17 year. Fulk is a two-star recruit by tennisrecruiting.net and ranked inside the top-ten in the state of Missouri.
 
"I am so excited for Hayden to join our program next August," said Worstell. "First of all, he has high character and will no doubt be a leader on our team one day. Second, he is a great student and will fit in the Jewell classroom environment from day one. Lastly, he is an outstanding player and I have no doubt his best tennis is ahead of him here at Jewell."
 
A perennial All-District performer, Fulk has been a varsity letterman on Glendale's lineup all four years. He is the reigning district doubles champion and was a State doubles qualifier as a junior.
 
Off the court, he is a member of Student Council, FBLA President, and Vice President of National Honor Society. 
 
Fulk will look to major in Business at William Jewell.
