Great Scott

Larry Scott

Unlike most Harvard seniors, men's tennis Co-Captain Larry Scott will not move from Cambridge to graduate school or to Wall Street.

Rather, Scott will travel from town to town, making his living hitting a small yellow ball over a net with an oversize racquet. Scott will play tennis on the "satellite" tour of small tournaments in hope of making an eventual jump to fame, fortune and the tennis big leagues.

And that's quite an "un-Ivy" thing to do.

Yet Scott seems well-suited for the task. After playing satellite events in the Midwest for two months last summer, Scott achieved a world ranking of 488, which he expects will rise significantly with full-time play.

Scott emerged as one of the top players in the East his sophomore year and enjoyed spectacular success as a junior--going undefeated in the Ivies while finishing the season as the nation's 18th-ranked collegian.

As a senior, he picked right up from where he left off, opening the season with a straight-set upset of Stanford's Dan Goldie, one of the top five college singles players in the country.
