EUGENE, Ore. – Head coach Nils Schyllander has announced the signing of Romanian standout Vlad Breazu to the Oregon men's tennis team. Breazu will join the team next fall.

Breazu ranked as high as No. 2 nationally in the Romanian U18 rankings last year and won the national championship in doubles.

"We are beyond excited to welcome Vlad to the Duck family," said Schyllander. "Vlad is an extremely hard worker and will fit in perfectly with our culture here at Oregon. He has had tremendous success over the past year, and we are thrilled to see what he can accomplish at the next level. Oregon just added some serious horsepower to an already talented team."

A native of Bucharest, Romania, Breazu has represented Romania in European championships and reached the fourth round of the U18 European junior championships last year. In doing so, he defeated the No. 11 ITF junior world ranked player and has a win over the No. 427 ranked player on the ATP world tour.
