Ben Stone was named head men's tennis coach at Illinois Wesleyan in August 2016.
"I am thrilled to join the Illinois Wesleyan family and coach the men's tennis team," said Stone, who is also an instructor at Bloomington's Evergreen Racquet Club. "My goal is to build the team into a force in our conference, while also building our players up to be men of integrity on and off the court. I hope that people will support the men's tennis team this next year as we build the foundation for the future."
