A warm welcome to a former NCTTA Female Athlete of the year and winner of the NCTTA Women’s Singles, Doubles and team title in 2018. She had a 38-4 record in College, she lost only 4 times in 3 years! Let that sink in!

Beyond her success in the NCTTA, Wu has represented the United States at the highest level, competing in prestigious events such as the Pan American Games and the World Team cup, solidifying her status as a world class athlete.

NCTTA is thrilled to have Texas Wesleyan University graduate Yue Wu as the Women’s NCTTA World University Games Team coach.

Wu said, “It is an incredible honor to be selected as the World University Games (WUG) women’s coach. Representing our country and working with such talented athletes is an opportunity I’m extremely grateful for.”

According to Wu, she is looking forward to helping the team perform at their highest level while fostering a strong team spirit. Wu can’t wait to help guide and support them on the international stage!

See who will be her future players by tuning in to the WUG Trials at Rockford, IL on Thursday, April 3rd!
