View Jordan's Bio ⟩

Jordan Smith, who has been a part of the K-State women’s tennis program since 2015, was named the seventh head women's tennis coach in program history by K-State director of athletics Gene Taylor on July 2, 2018. He was elevated to the position after serving an assistant coach from 2015-18, including as associate head coach in 2017-18.

During the 2020-21 campaign, Smith finished the season 7-12 (2-7 Big 12).

Smith's second season posted an 8-4 mark in non-conference play just before the 2019-20 campaign was cut short. K-State reached a national ranking of No. 38 in the ITA polls during the year with three players achieving national rankings in singles and doubles play. With a trio of juniors holding the top of the lineup in singles play, the Wildcats posted 37 total victories in dual match play for the 2020 spring campaign. With the guidance of Smith, the Cats produced clutch performances late in the matches against Arizona and Nebraska to secure two of the team's eight victories. The Wildcats also garnered a four-match win streak during the weeks of January 31-February 9, where the team defeated Wichita State, Missouri, North Texas and Arizona in that stretch.

During the Fall of 2019, K-State made a drastic improvement when competing in national events such as the ITA All-American Championships and the ITA Central Regionals. Under Smith, Maria Linares earned a spot in the qualifying round at the ITA All-American Championships while Anna Turco and Margot Decker earned a few victories in the doubles portion of the tournament. In the first fall tournament of the year, sophomore Rosanna Maffei would clinch the Flight A title down in Auburn, Alabama during the Marliss Gruver Fall Invitational in which she pulled off four straight victories to take home the crown.

In his first season at the helm of the Wildcats, he led K-State to a 13-11 record (2-7 Big 12) with a victory in the opening round of the 2019 Big 12 Tennis Championship against West Virginia. The Cats reached a national ranking as high as No. 33 following seven victories in eight matches, including wins over No. 39 SMU and No. 40 Wichita State. K-State was ranked for six consecutive weeks in the ITA rankings from February 19-March 26.

In 2019, sophomore Anna Turco earned All-Big 12 Second Team honors in singles after a team-best 14-7 singles mark during the spring. Turco also had a team-high five wins during Big 12 play, as she finished the season at the No. 1 spot in the lineup for the first time in her career. Additionally, freshman Karine-Marion Job was tabbed Big 12 Newcomer of the Week on February 19 after helping K-State clinch victories over North Texas and Arizona.

Smith's first year as the head coach marked his fourth season at K-State, serving as assistant coach for two seasons before being promoted to associate head coach in January 2018. He replaced Danielle Steinberg, who was introduced as the head coach of Colorado on June 12, 2018 after four years at K-State. Smith had been serving as interim head coach following Steinberg’s departure

SKILL LEVELS & GROUP PLACEMENT

Upon arrival, all participants are evaluated by the staff so that their own instructional needs can be addressed throughout the week. Campers are then sorted by ability first, then age per the Camp Director's discretion - adjustments are made as needed during camp.

While there are many ways to define skill levels, the following descriptions are what the Camp Directors at Nike Tennis Camps will use to organize and group camp participants. At the time of registration, please choose the level that best represents your athlete's experience:

Beginner: Players new to the game with little to no formal tennis instruction. They are still learning the fundamentals, focusing on basic skills and rules of the game. Typically play for recreation and have minimal match-play experience.
Intermediate: Players who can serve and sustain rallies with consistency. They are comfortable hitting medium-paced shots but may struggle with all strokes and directional control. Some may have participated in local tournaments and possess a UTR rating or are equivalent to a High School JV player.
Advanced: Players with dependable strokes and solid directional control. They demonstrate a strong competitive spirit, improved court coverage, and are developing strategies for both singles and doubles play. These players frequently compete in tournaments and have a USTA or UTR rating, or are equivalent to a High School Varsity player.
