AUSTIN, Texas — Concordia University Texas has named Timothy M. Stallard as the new head coach of its men's and women's tennis programs. Stallard takes the helm with more than three decades of leadership in coaching, tennis operations, and event production at the collegiate, professional, and community levels.
A Texas native, Stallard began as an assistant coach for the University of Texas women's tennis team before serving as director of tennis at Barton Creek Resort & Spa. He later founded ProLink Sports & Entertainment, co-founded InsideOut Sports & Entertainment with tennis legend Jim Courier, and led Lakecliff Racquet Club. Most recently, he served as executive director of The Bush Tennis Center in Midland, where he expanded youth outreach and hosted major tournaments, including the US Davis Cup, Billie Jean King Cup, and Pat Green Best of the West Challenge — blending elite competition with philanthropic impact.
"I'm honored to join Concordia Texas and lead the Tornados tennis program," Stallard said. "My vision is to create an environment where our student-athletes are challenged, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential — as competitors, scholars, and leaders in the community."
Known for his player-centered approach, Stallard is committed to building a culture of excellence. He emphasizes developing athletes who excel competitively while also thriving academically and contributing positively to their communities.
"Coach Stallard brings unmatched experience and a passion for developing players on and off the court," said Matt Wallis, Concordia University Texas interim athletic director. "We're excited to see him lead the Tornados and continue building a program that represents the best of CTX athletics."
Stallard begins his role immediately as the Tornados prepare for the upcoming season in the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference.
