Fellow freshman Jurica Grubisic was a first-team All-MAC selection, and junior Javier Bernabe was named to the second team. Gajdzik's 2009 recruiting class was named the No. 1 mid-major class in the country by TennisRecruiting.net.

Before taking over at Northern Illinois last summer, Gajdzik spent six seasons on the coaching staff at Baylor. The Bears won the 2004 national championship and the 2005 national indoor team title before earning a national runner-up finish in 2005. Baylor also advanced to the national semifinal in 2006 and 2007 and the national quarterfinal in 2003 and 2008. The Bears brought six consecutive Big 12 championships and five Big 12 tournament titles back to Waco in that time, as well.

Gajdzik directed 2004 NCAA singles champion Benjamin Becker and 2005 NCAA singles champion Benedikt Dorsch, who were two of the four All-Americans to play at Baylor while Gajdzik was on staff. In addition to his coaching duties at Baylor, Gajdzik founded the PG Tennis Academy in 2005.

During his playing days at Baylor, Gajdzik won the 1998 Big 12 singles and doubles titles and was named the conference's Newcomer of the Year while leading the team to its first NCAA tournament appearance. In his first season of collegiate tennis, he was ranked as high as 17th in singles and was in the top 20 in the doubles rankings with two different partners. His 8-0 conference mark that season still stands as the best single-season mark in school history. The following year, Baylor put together a 25-4 record and advanced to the national quarterfinals. In 2000, Gajdzik won another Big 12 doubles crown while leading the Bears to the first men's team conference title in school history and a Round of 16 berth in the NCAA tournament.

Prior to coming to the United States, Gajdzik was a member of Poland's national team from 1989 to 1997. He was an ATP ranked professional player in singles and doubles while playing for the Polish Junior National Team. Gajdzik also won a national championship and was ranked in the top five throughout his junior career.

In two years as an assistant coach for the Huskies, the Memphis, Indiana, native oversaw three first-team All-MAC selections, one MAC Player of the Year and one MAC Newcomer of the Year.

In 2009, Lenfert and Gajdzik led Northern Illinois to a second-place conference finish, which was the highest for the school since 1997. The duo also coached Northern Illinois to its first defeat of Ball State since 1974.

The 2009 Huskies received individual accolades as well. Pawel Poziomski was named MAC Newcomer of the Year and All-MAC second team. Fellow freshman Jurica Grubisic was a first-team All-MAC selection, and junior Javier Bernabe was named to the second team. The recruiting class put together by Lenfert and Gajdzik was named the No. 1 mid-major class in the country by TennisRecruiting.net.

Under the tutelage of Lenfert, Alex Friesen earned the 2008 Mid-American Conference Sportsman of the Year and was one of two Huskies named to the All-MAC first team. Additionally, the Huskies' 2008 top doubles tandem reached a national ranking of 33rd and posted an overall record of 20-8. He also helped mentor former NIU player Brian Livingston, who was named the 2008 MAC Player of the Year.

Lenfert's impact was not just felt on the court, but also in the classroom. In 2008, the Huskies recorded a team grade-point-average of 3.14 and claimed five of the 10 spots on the Academic All-MAC team.

Lenfert was a three-year team captain at Eastern Illinois University, where he played predominantly at No. 2 and No. 3 singles and No. 1 doubles for the Panthers from 2003-07.
