"I would like to thank Vanessa and Duquesne for the opportunity to be the Associate Head coach," said Callahan. "College tennis is a passion of mine and I am very fortunate to be able live that out at Duquesne. The last year and a half being the Women's Assistant Coach has been nothing short of amazing, and I'm excited to work with another group of great student-athletes. I am looking forward to building on the hard work that was achieved during the fall season and having a great spring season."
