Thomas Hipp was a three-time ITA All-American in both singles and doubles. He collected All-SSC first-team singles recognition four times and was a three-time first-team doubles honoree. In 2006, Hipp was named SSC Men’s Tennis Player of the Year, having won Freshman of the Year accolades in his debut season in 2003. He led Barry to the SSC title in 2003 and 2005. He finished his career with the Barry record for wins in both singles (67) and doubles (78). Hipp was named ITA Southeast Region Senior Player of the Year in 2006. He was an ITA National Doubles Champion in 2005 and won the ITA Regional Doubles Championship in both 2004 and 2005.
Hipp’s academic performance was every bit as impressive as his work on the tennis court. He was a four-time member of the Commissioner’s Honor Roll and ITA Scholar All-American list. He was a CoSIDA Academic All-America selection in 2005 and 2006. Hipp was named SSC Male Scholar-Athlete of the Year in 2004-05 and SSC Male Athlete of the Year in 2005-06. He is the only male student-athlete in conference history to earn both awards.
