Chan tabbed Big 12 Player of the Year; Roditi earns seventh Big 12 Coach of the Year honor
FORT WORTH – The annual Big 12 Men's Tennis Yearly Awards were plastered with purple and white, as TCU reeled in a conference-best nine postseason honors.
Duncan Chan was named Big 12 Co-Player of the Year while David Roditi was crowned Big 12 Coach of the Year for the seventh time to highlight the Horned Frogs' awards haul. Oliver Bonding took home Big 12 Freshman of the Year accolades. Cosme Rolland De Ravel gave TCU four of a possible five specialty awards, as the senior was tabbed Big 12 Newcomer of the Year.
TCU additionally placed a league-leading four players on the All-Big 12 Singles first team. Bonding, Chan Rolland De Ravel and Cooper Woestendick all received the recognition.
Chan and Rolland De Ravel, who held the ITA No. 1 doubles ranking for the final three weeks of the regular season, rounded out the Frogs' awards plethora with an All-Big 12 doubles first team nod.
The postseason all-conference awards were determined via a vote of the league's nine head coaches, who could not select their own players.
Chan shared Player of the Year honors with Arizona's Jay Friend and Baylor's Devin Badenhorst, both of whom he defeated during the regular season. He joins Cam Norrie ('17) and Luc Fomba ('21) as one of three Frogs to be chiosen as the conference's best. Chan has locked down the top spot in both lineups for the bulk of the dual season. The junior has won 16 ranked singles matches and leads TCU in total victories on the year with a 44-12 overall record. Tabbed No. 4 and No. 8, respectively, in the most recent ITA doubles and singles rankings, Chan is all-but-assured of earning All-American accolades and qualification for the ATP Tour Next Gen Accelerator program at season's end.
Roditi was deemed the league's top coach by his peers for the second straight season and fourth time in the last five years. His seven Big 12 Coach of the Year citations are the most of any coach in league history. Roditi has now repeated as the award recipient three times across his 16-season tenure at the helm of his alma mater.
Under Roditi's leadership, TCU captured its 10th conference championship in the last decade as the Horned Frogs won the Big 12 Tournament title. The Horned Frogs concluded the regular season with a 21-5 overall record and winners of eight straight matches. TCU's 21 victories are the second-most in a season in program history. The Frogs enter postseason play tabbed No. 2 in the ITA rankings and as the No. 6 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament.
Bonding is the fourth Horned Frog to be chosen as Big 12 Freshman of the Year and second in as many seasons. Woestendick claimed the crown in 2025. From London, England, Bonding signed with TCU in November and immediately became a fixture toward the top of the Horned Frogs' lineup. He has competed to a 27-13 combined overall record that includes a team-leading 10 victories at No. 1 doubles. Bonding was at his best vs. Big 12 opposition. He went 8-1 in singles opposite his conference peers and was named Most Outstanding Player at the Big 12 Tournament after posting a 4-0 combined record.
Rolland De Ravel joins 2022 TCU All-American Juan Carlos Aguilar as one of two TCU players to take home Big 12 Newcomer of the Year. The lone senior on the Horned Frogs' roster, Rolland De Ravel elected to spend his final season in Fort Worth following a standout three-year run at Old Dominion. The France native has served as TCU's team captain and solidified its top singles and doubles posts. Rolland De Ravel has exclusively played on the 1-line and 2-lines in singles, accumulating eight ranked wins and four of the top-50 flavor. His season doubles record stands at 26-7 overall and 15-3 in duals.
He and Chan have been nearly untouchable in doubles all season. They began their partnership with a Battle in the Bay Classic championship in September in their first matches as partners. The five victories were the initial installments of an 18-match unbeaten streak that lasted until the Big 12 Tournament.
Woestendick has yet to drop a singles match in Big 12 play over his first two years as a Frog. This season, the Kansas native has played evenly between courts two and three, producing a 13-3 overall record, 6-0 mark in league play and 4-1 clip vs. ranked opponents.
TCU begins its NCAA Tournament run at 5 p.m. on Friday when it hosts Denver (18-5) in the opening round.
