“I first got interested in UGA when my mom was telling me about it because she went there and my coach’s wife went there, and we are super close,” Loeb said. “I love the facility, and I believe I will get along really well with the coaches. I thought for me that it was the best place to get my tennis to the next level and also a really good academic school. I know many good players have come out of there, and I would like to be one of them as well. I also thought that I fit in really well and loved everything about it.”
