Another of George Samuel?'s incredible tennis players, Christian Witt managed to pack a career into two seasons with the Bucs. A transfer from Armstrong Atlantic, Witt came to Barry for his master?s degree. In his two seasons, he accomplished what no other athlete at Barry ever had, earning an individual national title and was recognized as the top scholar among Division II tennis players. In his first season, Witt successfully defended his Rolex Small College singles title, which he had won as a member of the Pirates the year before in the fall. In the spring, he was honored as the CoSIDA Academic All-America team member of the year. He set a school record with 22 spring dual match singles wins, and was named co-Player of the Year in the Sunshine State Conference.

His second season was almost as impressive as he won 18 spring matches and another ITA All-America award. He finished his career with a school record .909 winning percentage (40-4), and was named Barry male co-Athlete of the Year for the second straight season.
