The captain of the Buccaneers’ famed "Super Six", which carried Barry University to three straight Sunshine State Conference men’s tennis titles and two national runner-up finishes in four years, Herbert Bende is one of the most decorated men’s tennis players in Barry history.
He broke into the college scene in a big way, winning the Rolex Small College Singles national title as a freshman in 1995. In 1997, he was named SSC Player of the Year as he won a career-high 20 spring dual matches, and led the Bucs to the first of three straight conference titles. In four years, he compiled a 48-22 singles record in spring dual matches, mostly at the top flight. During his career, he was named an ITA All-American all four years, becoming the first Buccaneer with four such awards.
