Ryan Beigle enters his fifth season as the head men’s and women’s tennis coach and assistant sports information director at Ohio Dominican University. Beigle was named the second head tennis coach in school history in August of 2006 and, as a full time member of the ODU athletic department, became the first assistant SID in school history.

A 2002 graduate of Bethel College, Beigle received his degree in Education while playing tennis for the Pilots from 1996-2000. Beigle helped lead the Pilots to back-to-back NCCAA National Championships in 1999-2000.

Prior to joining the Panther staff, Beigle gained valuable experience coaching both the men’s and women’s tennis programs at Marian High School in Mishawaka, Ind. While at Marian, he helped lead the women’s team to a 65-15 overall record in his six seasons. He also led the men’s team to a 28-12 overall record in three seasons. Beigle also spent the 2005-06 seasons as the head women’s tennis coach at his alma mater. During his two seasons at Bethel, he led the Pilots to a 30-17 overall record and was named the 2006 NCCAA Coach of the Year while leading the team to a NCCAA National Title.

Beigle took over an extremely youthful but talented Panther squad on both the men’s and women’s teams in 2006. He guided the women’s team to back-to-back American Mideast Conference titles and the program’s first berth in the NAIA National Tournament in 2008. Beigle and the women’s team made a return trip in 2009. He has twice been named the AMC Women’s Coach of the Year and was honored at the NAIA National Tournament this year as the Wilson/ITA Region III Coach of the Year. Beigle also led a youthful men’s team to their first AMC Tournament title and the program’s first NAIA National Tournament appearance in 2009.

Along with his various coaching duties, Beigle plays an integral role in the athletic department, assisting in the sports information office. He resides in Columbus.
