Chad Camper announced the signing of Jessie Young to a National Letter of Intent this week. Young is a four-star prep prospect from Canton, Ga.
Young will be a 2019 graduate of Cambridge High School in Alpharetta, Ga. She has a 12-6 record as a senior and went 37-21 last year.
"Jessie has the perfect game for college tennis," stated Camper. "She can win the point several ways and has a fighting spirit. I knew the first time I watched her compete, that this was a player we need at Chattanooga."
Young is the fifth ranked played in Georgia, according to TennisRecruiting.net, who also gave her the four-star rating. She is in the top 50 in the Southeast and just outside of the top 200 nationally.
