Summary

Cedarville University has renamed its tennis facilities as the Dr. Delyte 'Dee' Morris Tennis Complex. The board of education approved this change in recognition of Morris' 42-year tenure as a professor, physician, and coach. She served as the tennis head coach from 2007 and led the team to four consecutive NCCAA National Championship appearances. The name change coincides with ongoing renovations, which have received funding from a $200,000 donation by the United States Tennis Association. The full renovation project is set to be completed by the summer of 2027 and will include 12 courts with three designated for pickleball.
