DAVID WONG
Head Coach
17th season at LU • 17th season overall Lamar, 1997
Now entering his 17th season as head coach, David Wong has become synonymous with Lamar University women’s tennis after elevating the program back into a yearly Southland championship contender. Wong, a former Cardinal tennis player himself, is familiar with the rich history of LU tennis, and after stepping into a program that won just
six matches over his first two seasons, the Lady Cards have reached double figures in victories in all but three of his last 12 seasons, including a historic 24-3 campaign in 2008 that culminated in a trip to the NCAA Tournament. The winningest coach in school history, Wong became the first to win 150 matches in 2012 with a victory over Arkansas State. He holds an overall record of 188-173 with the LU women. In addition to team success, a number of Cardinals have earned individual recognition from the Southland Conference. Over Wong’s 13 years in charge, Big Red has had 19 players named All-Southland Conference to go along with seven doubles teams. In addition to the all-conference athletes, Wong has produced two Southland Players of the Year, two SLC Newcomers of the year and two freshmen of the year. In 2013, Wong’s team experienced a tremendous run of success at home, reeling off seven consecutive victories in Beaumont before bowing out in a heartbreaker in the conference tournament. Led by All-Southland honorees Carolina Salas and Dariya Dashutina, the Cards posted an impressive 7-2 mark in conference play, leading LU to an 11-9 overall record. The 2012 season represented Wong’s eighth consecutive season of 12 or more wins. After a slow start to the campaign, All-Southland honorees Alessandra Pennesi and Hélène Czudek combined for a 15-win debut season to help LU to a 7-4 conference slate before being upended by UT Arlington at the Southland Championships. 2017 INFORMATION GUIDE

onships in 17 seasons. During his four years competing for the Red and White, the team was 57-43, and 1980 was one of three that saw LU record 20-or-more wins in a season. In addition to Wesbrooks, Wong played for Ken DeKoning, who was a former Davis Cup player and team captain for Holland. He also trained under Humphrey Hose, a former number one player for Venezuela, who reached the quarterfinals of Wimbledon in 1975. Originally a native of Aruba, one of Wong’s first coaches was Eddie Ras, who is widely regarded as one of the top coaches in the Caribbean. As a player, Wong was ranked No. 2 in the state of Texas in men’s 35 singles, and he and his wife were also the top-ranked husband/wife doubles team in the state. Wong is a USPTA-certified tennis instructor, and he has worked with nationally-ranked junior players as well as adult teams at both local and national levels. A 1997 graduate of Lamar University, Wong currently resides in Nederland with his wife, Missy. He has three children - Michael, Sydney and Jayci, and two stepchildren - Brandon and Mindy.

JON FLANAGAN
Volunteer Assistant Coach 15th season at Lamar Lamar, 1975
Former Lamar University player Jon Flanagan is in his 15th season as a volunteer assistant with the Lady Cardinals tennis team. In 2002, Lamar head coach David Coach Wong invited Flanigan to work with his teams as a volunteer assistant. It seems that being a part of a team that is steadily improving year after year is hard to leave, especially when you factor in the winning attitude of the Lady Cardinals. Flanagan started teaching tennis in the Beaumont Parks and Recreation summer program for three years while in high school. After completing his marketing degree in 1975, he began teaching at the Beaumont Country Club, specializing in junior players. His students included numerous state ranked players, two No. 1 state-ranked players as well as one that was ranked 16th nationally. In 1979 he went to work for the Sherwin-Williams Paint Co. and is currently the manager for the main branch in Beaumont. Flanagan grew up in Beaumont, a member of a prominent tennis family, parents Floyd and Sue as well as brother Kurt and sister Susan were all top ranked local players. He was fortunate to be a scholarship player for Lamar under coach Ron Wesbrooks from 1972-1975, a team that won three consecutive Southland Conference titles. Flanagan currently resides in Lumberton, Texas, with his wife of more than 30 years, Melinda. Flanagan has two sons Nicholas and Justin and one granddaughter, Kayla.
