BILLY MARTIN
Head Coach 32nd Season Redlands ‘89
The program’s all-time leader in head-coaching wins, Billy Martin completed his 31st year directing UCLA men’s tennis in 2023-24. It also marked his 41st year on staff, as he assisted friend and mentor Glenn Bassett for 10 years prior to taking the reins in 1994. Owner of a 657-166 (.798) career record, Martin passed Bassett April 25, 2019 with win No. 593. The longest-tenured active head coach at UCLA is only the fourth in the history of the men’s tennis program, following legends Bill Ackerman (1921-1950), J.D. Morgan (1951-1966) and Bassett (1967-1993). Martin became just the third active head coach to be inducted into the UCLA Athletic Hall of Fame, joining Al Scates and Valorie Kondos Field, in 2015. Perhaps the most amazing accomplishment in Martin’s career is his ability to consistently compete for championships, as his teams have posted top-five finishes at the season-ending NCAA Championships in 23 of 30 completed seasons.
Martin’s finest season at the helm came in 2005, when he led UCLA to its first NCAA title since 1984. The 4-3 come-from-behind victory over top-seeded and undefeated Baylor in College Station, Texas marked UCLA’s 16th NCAA team championship in men’s tennis, and the school’s 97th overall. The win snapped Baylor’s 57-match winning streak, the second longest in NCAA history. It also avenged the Bruins’ 4-0 loss to the Bears in the 2004 NCAA final.
In addition to the dramatic run to the title in 2005, Martin has had several near misses at the NCAA Championships, including 2013, when the top-seeded Bruins were narrowly edged by No. 2 Virginia 4-3 in the championship match in Champaign, Ill. Under Martin, UCLA has recorded a runner-up finish on four total occasions (1996, 1999, 2004 and 2013). After reaching the final in just his third year as head coach, Martin was named the 1996 ITA National Coach of the Year, as the Bruins finished with a 27-1 overall record. During the coronavirus-shortened 2020 dual-match campaign, Martin collected the 600th win of his coaching career. He has guided 20 teams to 20 or more wins in his 30 completed seasons. The 2018 group logged a 30-3 record en route to the national semifinals.
Another significant highlight in Martin’s career was his outstanding success in the highlycompetitive Pac-12 Conference, where he owned a 181-41 (.815) record. Under Martin’s watch, UCLA captured 15 regular-season conference titles, including two stretches of four in a row from 2004-07 and 2016-19. His teams swept through conference regular-season play from March 25, 2016-March 26, 2021, a streak that spanned 33 matches. UCLA finished out of the top three in the Pac-12 standings just three times during Martin’s tenure, and won four conference tournament titles (2013, 2014, 2016 and 2018). He was named
Pac-12 Coach of the Year five times (1996, 2012-14 and 2018).
In addition to his numerous team accomplishments, Martin takes great pride in helping his players achieve their individual goals, as well. In 2006, Benjamin Kohlloeffel notched a 6-1, 6-4 win over Virginia’s Somdev Devvarman to become the 10th NCAA men’s singles champion in school history – and first since Martin, himself, in 1975. Kohlloeffel’s victory put his coach in an elite category, as Martin earned the career “triple crown” by leading his school to three different titles at the NCAA Championships (team, singles and doubles). Next to nab the NCAA singles title was Marcos Giron, who turned in a 6-4, 6-1 victory against Pepperdine’s Alex Sarkissian in 2014. Then, two years later, Mackenzie McDonald dispatched top-ranked Mikael Torpegaard of Ohio State 6-3, 6-3 for the crown. Kohlloeffel, Giron and McDonald were each named ITA National Player of the Year. McDonald was tabbed Pac-12 Player of the Year in both 2015 and 2016.
Martin has coached four NCAA doubles champions, including three in the past eight completed seasons. The first came in 1995, when Justin Gimelstob and Srdjan Muskatirovic bested TCU’s Ashley Fisher and Jason Weir-Smith 6-7(3), 6-4, 6-4. The next came in 2016, when McDonald completed the individual championships sweep alongside Martin Redlicki. The pair coasted past Arthur Rinderknech and Jackson Withrow of Texas A&M 6-4, 6-1 in the final. In 2018, Redlicki and Evan Zhu earned one of the final spots in the field and proved their inclusion was warranted, edging Torpegaard and Martin Joyce of Ohio State in a 6-7(8), 7-6(4), 1-0(9) thriller. Most recently, Maxime Cressy and Keegan Smith completed an undefeated season by beating Patrick Kaukovalta and Mazen Osama of Alabama 6-3, 6-4 in 2019. Cressy and Smith did not drop a set on the year, beating 15 nationally-ranked opponents along the way.
In all, 33 players have achieved All-America status under Martin’s direction. Among them were eventual Grand Slam champions Gimelstob and Jean-Julien Rojer. Gimelstob earned mixed doubles titles at the 1998 Australian and French Opens. Rojer has helped collect men’s doubles crowns at the 2015 Wimbledon, 2017 US Open and 2022 French Open events, as well as the mixed doubles top prize at Roland-Garros in 2014. As head coach, Martin has guided five future ATP Top 100 singles players in Cressy, Gimelstob, Giron, McDonald and Kevin Kim, as well as four ATP Top 50 doubles players in Gimelstob, McDonald, Rojer and Marcin Matkowski.
Career Coaching Record
Inducted into the ITA Men’s Collegiate Tennis Hall of Fame in 1996, Martin’s playing career is full of highlights. To this very day he is still regarded as one of the best junior players in the history of the sport. He captured the 1973 and 1974 singles titles at Junior Wimbledon, the Junior U.S. Open and Junior Orange Bowl tournaments. Inside Tennis Magazine ran an article that named him “Junior Player of the Century.” Due to his tremendous success as a junior player while growing up in Illinois, Martin received a spot in the USTA Midwest Section Hall of Fame in December 2010. He went into the Southern California Tennis Association Hall of Fame in August 2011.
Although Martin played just one season at UCLA before turning pro, the 1975 season was a special one, as he helped the team to a perfect 19-0 dual-match record and the NCAA team championship as a freshman.
After capturing the 1975 NCAA singles championship, Martin turned professional and enjoyed a fine career. He was selected Rookie of the Year by Tennis Magazine in the first professional season went on to reach the Wimbledon singles quarterfinals in 1977. Martin defeated top pros such as John Newcombe, Ken Rosewall (twice), Stan Smith, Harold Soloman and Roscoe Tanner. In 1975, Martin won the Arkansas International singles title. He also won doubles championships in 1977, 1979 and 1981 in Laguna Niguel, Calif., Brussels, Belgium and Bristol, England, respectively.
Martin attended UCLA for three years, working on his undergraduate studies before completing his bachelor’s degree in business management at the University of Redlands in 1989. He earned his master of business administration from USC in 1991.
During the summer, Martin runs the Martin & de Villiers Tennis Camps alongside associate head coach Rikus de Villiers at Los Angeles Tennis Center on UCLA’s campus. Martin also directed the Bassett-Martin Tennis Camp in Ojai, Calif.
Martin and his wife, Justine, have two children, sons Wil and Travis. Wil played college tennis at Saint Mary’s from 2012-15 and enters his fourth season as an assistant coach for UCLA men’s tennis in 2024-25, while Travis played for the Bruins from 2014-17.
RIKUS DE VILLIERS
Associate Head Coach 12th Season
Fresno State ‘11
Rikus de Villiers completed his 11th season on the UCLA men’s tennis coaching staff, and fourth as associate head coach, in 2023-24. He served in the role of volunteer assistant coach for five of the six seasons prior to his promotion by head coach Billy Martin in June 2018. De Villiers came to UCLA in the fall of 2012 and immediately aided the Bruins in their run to the final round of the NCAA Championships the following spring. Over the course of his first five seasons on staff, UCLA registered an overall record of 124-25 (.832) and dropped just three regular-season Pac-12 matches (32-3). The 2014, 2016 and 2018 Bruins also secured Pac-12 tournament titles during de Villiers’ time as a volunteer. He coached American Ryan Harrison on the ATP World Tour during his time away from the program in 2015-16.
In the 2019 dual-match season, de Villiers helped the program to its fourth regular-season Pac-12 title in a row. UCLA went 8-0 in conference play, stretching its winning streak in league regular-season matches to 29. The Bruins would go on to reach the third round of the NCAA tournament. There was also individual success, as the duo of Maxime Cressy and Keegan Smith posted a 21-0 record and claimed the 14th NCAA doubles championship in program history.
In addition to Cressy and Smith, Marcos Giron (2014) and the combination of Martin Redlicki and Evan Zhu (2018) collected NCAA individual championships with de Villiers on staff. Three future ATP Top 100 singles players – Cressy, Giron and Mackenzie McDonald – have matriculated through UCLA during de Villiers’ tenure in Westwood. De Villiers has helped eight Bruins achieve All-America status, with five of them being honored at least twice. UCLA also had three Pac-12 Singles Players of the Year (Denis Novikov in 2013, McDonald in 2015 and Redlicki in 2018), three Pac-12 Doubles Teams of the Year (Redlicki/ Evan Zhu in 2017 and 2018 and Cressy/Smith in 2019) and three Pac-12 Freshmen/ Newcomers of the Year (McDonald in 2014, Smith in 2018 and Spencer Johnson in 2024)
with de Villiers on staff.
Prior to joining UCLA, de Villiers played collegiate tennis from 2008-2011, spending one season at Pepperdine before transferring to Fresno State. The Durban, South Africa native came into his own with the Bulldogs, earning All-Western Athletic Conference (WAC) recognition each year. It was a breakout 2011 for de Villiers and the Bulldogs, who advanced to the NCAA Championships second round after claiming the WAC’s automatic bid to the tournament. Individually, de Villiers was named to the All-WAC Singles and Doubles First Teams. De Villiers and partner Remi Boutillier earned a second trip to the NCAA Championships doubles tournament and finished the season ranked No. 18 in the Campbell/ITA doubles rankings. De Villiers reached a career-best No. 83 on the singles list.
A multiple-time winner at the African Championships as a junior player, de Villiers picked up his first ATP point at just 14 years old.The Martin & de Villiers Tennis Camps take place each summer at Los Angeles Tennis Center on UCLA’s campus.
WIL MARTIN
Assistant Coach
Fourth Season
Saint Mary’s ‘15
Equipped with NCAA Division I playing experience and a rich coaching pedigree, Wil Martin enters his fourth season as an assistant coach for UCLA men’s tennis in 2024-25.
Son of long-time UCLA head tennis coach and ITA Hall of Famer Billy Martin, Martin has made a name for himself in the California tennis landscape. He played collegiate tennis at Saint Mary’s prior to his return to the Southland, where he replaced the promoted Rikus de Villiers on staff in 2018.
The Bruins collected the Pac-12 regular-season championship in Martin’s debut season, going undefeated in eight conference matches and advancing to the third round of the NCAA tournament. The tandem of Maxine Cressy and Keegan Smith also had individual success, going 21-0 en route to the 14th NCAA doubles championship in program history. Martin was also on staff for the coronavirus-shortened 2019-2020 campaign and part of 2020-21. A shoulder injury derailed a promising beginning with the Gaels for Martin, who won five of his first seven singles matches in 2011-12. He sat out the entirety of the subsequent season, as well as most of the following fall before seeing his resilience pay off in 2014. Martin was a stalwart during dual-match play, finishing third on the team in both singles wins and doubles triumphs with eight and nine, respectively. He remained a consistent doubles force through the 2014-15 campaign, his final one with the team.
Martin attended Loyola High School in Los Angeles for three years before relocating to Ojai, Calif., where he attended Nordhoff High School and trained at Weil Tennis Academy.

Arthur Ashe (1963-65)
Arthur Ashe, one of tennis’ all-time greats, began his climb to success at UCLA in 1962. He was the first prominent African-American male tennis player to grace both the collegiate and professional tennis scenes. As a freshman at UCLA, he was ranked No. 18 nationally and No. 6 in Southern California. In 1962, he was named a member of the American Junior Davis Cup squad and was the 1962 All-University of California singles and doubles champ (with Charles Pasarell). Ashe’s sophomore season at UCLA was just as successful as he reached the third round of the Wimbledon Championships and the quarterfinals of the NCAA singles championships. He finished the year ranked sixth nationally and second in Southern California. The 1963 U.S. Davis Cup member also became the first African-American to be ranked in America’s “First 10” during his sophomore campaign.
Ashe co-captained the 1964 UCLA team that finished as the NCAA runner-up for the third straight time in as many years. Ranked third nationally and second in Southern California, Ashe was a 1964 NCAA singles semifinalist and NCAA doubles finalist. His collegiate career peaked in 1965 when he brought home the coveted NCAA singles title and captained UCLA to an NCAA team title after a three-year run as NCAA runners-up. Ashe also teamed with Ian Crookenden for the 1965 NCAA doubles title, posting a 14-3 record in doubles play on the year. In singles, Ashe compiled a 36-4 record on the season, and picked up the NCAA title and AAWU singles titles. He was also the Southern California Intercollegiate champ, Ojai Tournament champion, Southern California championships finalist and Thunderbird Invitational finalist. Finishing the year ranked second nationally, he helped UCLA to a perfect 11-0 season. The year 1965 also marked the second time he was selected to the U.S. Davis Cup team. Ashe, who was also a Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity member, earned four letters in tennis (1961-64). He graduated in June, 1966 with a degree in Business Administration.
He enjoyed an illustrious professional career with three Grand Slam singles titles (1968 U.S. Open, 1970 Australian Open and 1975 Wimbledon) and two doubles (1971 French Open and 1977 Australian Open) crowns to his credit. Ashe was a founding father of the present-day Association

Sports Illustrated named him the 1992 Sportsman of the Year, the third of his four appearances on the magazine’s cover. Arthur Ashe, Jr., passed away on Feb. 6, 1993.
Jimmy Connors (1971)
Jimmy Connors, one of the few professional athletes in the world who remained a force in his respective sport for two entire decades, began his tennis success on the collegiate level as a player at UCLA.
Connors played a key role in the Bruins’ 10th NCAA team championship when he captured the 1971 NCAA singles crown. The 1971 squad posted an impressive 17-0 record, one of only six undefeated years. Not only was he a key singles player during the 1971 year, but he also teamed up with Jeff Austin to post the team’s best doubles record that season with a 9-1 mark.
After turning pro in 1972, Connors captured one Australian Open title (1974), two Wimbledon titles (1974 and ’82) and five U.S. Open Championships (1974, ’76, ’78, ’82 and ’83).
He won every major championship except the French Open and is the only player in tennis history to have won the U.S. Open on three different surfaces (grass, clay and hardcourt). He reached the quarterfinals or better at the U.S. Open 17 out of 18 years, spanning from 1973-89 and 1991. Connors ranks as the all-time leader for most matches won at Wimbledon (84) and the U.S. Open (97).
The left-hander was also a talented doubles player on the pro level, owning 19 doubles titles, two of which were Grand Slams (1973 Wimbledon and 1975 U.S. Open). His highest doubles ranking was fifth on April 25, 1976.
On the professional circuit, he spent more weeks at the No. 1 spot than anyone in the history of the ATP rankings — 158 spanning from July 29, 1974 to Aug. 16, 1977.
Born Sept. 2, 1952, Connors remained one of the world’s top tennis players until his retirement in 1993. In all, Connors competed on the pro tour for a remarkable 21 years, even reaching the semifinals of the 1991 U.S. Open at the age of 39.

HEAD COACHING HISTORY
Bill Ackerman (1921-1950)
William C. “Bill” Ackerman first became associated with UCLA as a freshman in 1920. In 1921, Ackerman’s sophomore year as a Bruin netter, he was named head coach of the UCLA men’s tennis team. That season, the Bruins won their first of five straight Southern Conference Championships. UCLA, then known as the University of California, Southern Branch, joined the Pacific Coast Conference in 1925. Seven years later, Ackerman guided the Bruins to a PCC team title (1932). His Bruins won nine more PCC titles until his retirement following the 1950 season. Ackerman coached the UCLA men’s tennis team to its first NCAA Team Championship in 1950, the first such title for any UCLA sports program. He also coached UCLA’s first-ever NCAA singles champ Jack Tidball (1933) and UCLA’s first player to capture an NCAA singles and doubles crown in the same year in Herb Flam (1950). Flam collected the doubles title with Gene Garrett, another of Ackerman’s star players. Ackerman was inducted into the Collegiate Tennis Hall of Fame at the 100th NCAA Tennis Championships (1984) held at the University of Georgia. Ironically, 1984 was the same year that UCLA’s third-ever head coach and former Ackerman pupil, Glenn Bassett, coached the Bruins to an NCAA team title with a 5-4 victory over Stanford. Ackerman, who passed away in 1988 at the age of 85, was also a charter member of the UCLA Athletic Hall of Fame, and UCLA’s Student Union was renamed the William C. Ackerman Student Union in 1967.
J.D. Morgan (1951-1966)
J.D. Morgan, the second head coach of the UCLA men’s tennis team, catapulted the Bruins to more success in the 1950’s and ’60’s. Just one year after taking over the helm from Ackerman, Morgan guided UCLA to an NCAA team championship (1952). He was the first UCLA coach in any sport to take the Bruins not only to back-to-back titles but also to three consecutive NCAA titles (1952, ’53 and ’54). Under his guidance, the Bruins won seven NCAA crowns, four in the 1950’s

(1952, ’53, ’54 and ’56) and three in the 1960’s (1960, ’61 and ’65). He was the first coach in NCAA history to guide his team to three consecutive NCAA men’s tennis team titles. Morgan’s Bruins also finished in second place four times. He produced four NCAA singles champions and five NCAA doubles team champions in his 16-year tenure. He coached tennis greats Arthur Ashe, Charles Pasarell, Bob Perry and Ian Crookenden, to name a few. The NCAA singles champions during his tenure included Larry Nagler (1960), Allen Fox (1961), Ashe (1965) and Pasarell (1966). The NCAA doubles champions he coached included Perry-Larry Huebner (1953), Perry-Ron Livingston (1954), Fox-Nagler (1960), Ashe-Crookenden (1965) and Pasarell-Crookenden (1966). Morgan was inducted into the ITA Collegiate Hall of Fame in 1983. In his honor, the building that currently houses the athletic department offices and connects with the UCLA Athletic Hall of Fame is named the J.D. Morgan Center.
Glen Bassett (1967-1993)
Glenn Bassett maintained the tradition of Ackerman and Morgan from 1967 to 1993, collecting seven NCAA team championships and 13 Pac 8/10 titles. In his 27 years at the helm he never had a losing season. In addition, he produced three NCAA singles champions, four NCAA doubles team champions and 49 All-Americans. He is the only coach in NCAA history to win an NCAA tennis title as a player (one), assistant coach (five) and head coach (seven). Including his years as an assistant coach, he has worked with some of tennis’ most recognized players, including national champions Arthur Ashe, Ian Crookenden, Billy Martin and Jimmy Connors, and 1992 Olympian Mark Knowles. He finished his career ranked as the nation’s winningest (by percentage) active Division-I men’s tennis coach, having compiled an impressive dual match record of 592-92-2 (.864).
After retiring from UCLA, Bassett joined the Pepperdine staff for two years. He continued to be a supporter of the Bruin program, attending home matches at the Los Angeles Tennis Center, until he passed away in 2020 at the age of 93.

Los Angeles Tennis Center
Located on the UCLA campus nestled just west of Pauley Pavilion and south of Drake Stadium is the impressive Los Angeles Tennis Center: home to both UCLA men’s and women’s tennis teams.
The LATC was the first large-scale outdoor tennis stadium opened in the Los Angeles metropolitan area and was officially dedicated on May 20, 1984, just in time to host the 1984 NCAA Women’s Tennis Championships and the 1984 Olympic Games. Since then, the LATC has been site of several top collegiate and professional tournaments. The NCAA Women’s Tennis Championships returned to the LATC in 1987 and ’88, while the NCAA Men’s Tennis Championships called the LATC home in 1997.
On the professional level, the LATC has been a regular stop of
the ATP Tour for many years. The first tournament held at the LATC, the Union 76 Pacific Southwest Open, featured former Bruins Jimmy Connors and Eliot Teltscher in the finals. The tournament, renamed The LA Open, continued to thrive at the LATC until 2012.
The LATC features six lighted, hard-surface courts, a 5,800-permanent seat grandstand around the three main courts and a two-level clubhouse. At full capacity, the LATC can accommodate more than 10,000 spectators. The clubhouse contains locker rooms, coaches’ offices and team rooms for both the UCLA men’s and women’s teams, as well as offices for the Southern California Tennis Association (SCTA).
The second level of the clubhouse features a 4,000-square foot indoor dining area and kitchen. Center court is called the Times-Mirror Center Court. The stadium is named the Straus Stadium and Clubhouse.
In January of 2010, both the men’s and women’s teams received a complete renovation of their locker rooms. The newest project at the LATC was completed in January 2019, when the Katz Family Scoreboard debuted. Its Daktronics display, measuring 18 feet high and 31.2 feet wide, is among the largest LED video screens in collegiate tennis. Stationed at the east end of LATC’s main stadium courts, the board features a 13HD pixel pitch and RGB LED lights. Also new to the match-day experience is a custom JBL speaker system set to improve audio on the front courts while introducing sound to the back courts. The Budge Offer Family Scoreboard previously served UCLA tennis for nearly 20 years.
The Elvin & Bert Abels Scoreboard was installed overlooking the back courts in September 2022. The Greiner Family Scoreboard first enabled fans to follow the action on every court from either location when it was hung in 2005.
Martin Jarmond Director of Athletics
5th Year
UNC Wilmington ‘01
Martin Jarmond, a nationally recognized leader in college athletics, has built an impressive track record of competitive excellence, innovative strategy and student athlete success. A two-time recipient of Sports Business Journal’s Forty Under 40 Award with over 20 years in sports administration spanning three conferences, Jarmond has guided UCLA to new heights through his culture of an E.L.I.T.E. mindset – Energy, Leadership, Integrity, Toughness and Excellence.
Jarmond’s results-driven strategies combined with a relentless work ethic to elevate UCLA Athletics has helped to create an exceptional experience for student-athletes and fans alike. Over Jarmond’s first four years in Westwood, UCLA has won five NCAA championships in the sports of men’s water polo (2020), women’s soccer (2022), men’s volleyball (2023, 2024) and women’s water polo (2024). In the 2023-24 school year alone, UCLA had five teams competing on the final day for an NCAA Championship, with victories in men’s volleyball and women’s water polo in an eight-day span in May.
In June of 2022, Jarmond worked closely with campus leadership while playing a critical role in UCLA Athletics applying and being accepted for future membership in the Big Ten Conference. The Bruins begin their historic first season in the Big Ten Conference on August 2, 2024.
Jarmond was hired on May 19, 2020 as UCLA’s Alice and Nahum Lainer Family Director of Athletics, becoming the ninth athletic director in school history. He made an immediate impact on the Bruins, jumpstarting the Voting Matters Initiative, the first of its kind in the country which assisted student-athletes in discovering the tools needed to exact meaningful change through civic duty. Jarmond engineered a partnership between UCLA and Nike/Jordan Brand, becoming only the fifth Jordan brand school in the nation and the first partnership with Nike in UCLA history. The six-year agreement between UCLA and Nike provides for 22 of the 25 UCLA varsity sports with Nike apparel, while football, men’s basketball and women’s basketball don Jordan Brand. Jarmond exhibits a strong commitment to mental health awareness, and his emphasis on diversity and inclusion was recognized in a 2021 SBJ award for being a national leader in diversity and inclusive hiring. He was the Pac-12 Conference representative to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee for 2021-22.
Through Jarmond’s instrumental leadership, UCLA Athletics has positioned itself at the forefront of a rapidly-changing collegiate athletics landscape. In the burgeoning area of Name, Image and Likeness (NIL), Jarmond and UCLA Athletics launched “Westwood Ascent,” a comprehensive NIL program that supports UCLA’s student-athletes, helping them build their personal brands and maximize their NIL opportunities. In addition, the “Westwood Exchange” was established as a free business registry designed for companies, donors, fans and alumni that want to connect directly with UCLA’s studentathletes interested in capitalizing on their NIL.
Extensive work by Jarmond and his staff throughout the COVID-19 pandemic ensured that all Bruin teams could compete safely during the 2020-21 academic year, Jarmond’s first at UCLA. Bruin teams won four conference titles that year and the men’s water polo program won its 12th national championship in the spring of 2021. The men’s basketball team embarked on a remarkable journey, advancing from the First Four to the 2021 NCAA Final Four, UCLA’s first national semifinal appearance since 2008. These athletic achievements were balanced by record numbers of student-athletes earning spots on the conference all-academic squads, with 49 individuals earning a perfect 4.0 GPA for the Winter Quarter, and 131 student-athletes earning their UCLA degrees. For the first time ever, the Bruins produced multiple winners of the NCAA Elite 90 Award. Four student-athletes were recognized by CoSIDA as Academic All-Americans.
Jarmond came to UCLA from Boston College, where he served as the school’s Director of Athletics for three years. During his time there, he orchestrated the Eagles’ first-ever strategic plan, a comprehensive five-year goal to advance the program by fostering student-athlete formation, strengthening competitive excellence, increasing external engagement and enhancing facilities. The strategic plan was supported by BC’s first-ever athletics-only capital campaign, at the time, the largest campaign of any Atlantic Coast Conference institution at $150 million. Jarmond hired high-impact coaches in football, women’s basketball, softball, volleyball, swimming & diving, men’s soccer, women’s soccer and fencing. Jarmond served on the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Oversight Committee and on the John McLendon Minority Scholarship Foundation Board of Directors.
Prior to joining Boston College in 2017 and becoming the youngest athletic director of any Power Five institution at age 37, Jarmond previously served as deputy director of athletics at Ohio State, moving up the ranks after arriving as an associate athletic director for development in 2009. During his time at Ohio State, he was the lead administrator for a variety of sports, including football and men’s basketball, and directed external and internal relations and day-today operations. He also had responsibility for football scheduling, served on the NCAA Division I Women’s Golf Committee, and was a member of the inaugural College Football Playoff National Championship Advisory Group and the Rose Bowl Advisory Committee. As Ohio State Athletics’ chief advancement officer, Jarmond helped raise more than $120 million between 2010-2012.
Jarmond was also an assistant athletic director for development for seven years at Michigan State, where he served on the athletic director’s executive leadership team. He was a key member of the $1.2 billion “Campaign for MSU” development team and a liaison between Michigan State’s university development and alumni association leadership. Jarmond led the efforts to implement Scholarship Seating in football and Courtside seating in men’s basketball.
A native of Fayetteville, North Carolina, Jarmond, 43, earned a bachelor’s degree in communication studies from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. A two-year captain of the men’s basketball team, he led his team to the program’s first-ever NCAA tournament appearance in 2000 and earned Colonial Athletic Association All-Academic honors in 2001. He holds both a M.B.A. and a master’s in sports administration from Ohio University. Jarmond is married to Dr. Jessica Jarmond, a dentist. They have three daughters: Scarlett, Savannah and Serena.
