WASHINGTON - Georgetown University Women's Tennis Head Coach Gordie Ernst has announced that Stephanie Wetmore will be joining the squad for the 2010-11 season. Wetmore adds to an already veteran group that lost no players to graduation and narrowly missed a berth in last year's BIG EAST Tournament.

Wetmore is a transfer from the University of California-Los Angeles who has one season of eligibility remaining. At UCLA, she was part of an incredibly talented program that played in three NCAA Championships. As a junior, Wetmore was ranked in the top 25 in the nation in doubles and her team made it to the NCAA Round of 16.

Her sophomore season, the Bruins were the NCAA and Pac-10 Champions and as a freshman the squad advanced to the NCAA team finals. She finished her career at UCLA with a record of 42-31 in singles and 78-32 in doubles play.

In juniors play, Wetmore was among the top 100 in the world on the Junior ITF Circuit. The Ontario, Canada native represented her country at the Orange Bowl and the Junior US Open. She ranked as high as No. 2 in Canada (U-16's) and her squad captured the 2005 championship at the Canadian Summer Games.

Wetmore will join the Hoyas this fall. She has been accepted into the School of Continuing Studies Sport Industry Management program.
