"Jordan Szabo is another redshirt freshman and he is from Melbourne, Australia. Jordan has a tremendous passion for the game and is probably the hardest worker on our team. He has a very durable, athletic body with a big serve. Jordan is a bit of a throw back to my era, as he has a very good attacking serve and volley game. He is very comfortable around the net which translates into very good doubles skills. I know it was hard for him to sit last spring (2011) and watch, but he is now a more complete player and will compete for a position in the singles and doubles lineup for the Aggies this spring." - Aggie Head Coach Steve Denton
