Bio

Alejandro Andres enters his third season as head coach of the men's and women's tennis programs at Franklin Pierce University in 2023-24. 

During his second season in 2022-23, Andres guided the Pierce women's program to a 12-4 (8-1 NE10) record and their third consecutive NE10 Championship appearance, where they battled it out to a runner-up finish against top-ranked Southern New Hampshire University. Five individuals from the women's side were awarded with All-Conference honors, including First Team singles recognition for graduate Ana Platisa, and a 2nd-best overall team GPA across the Northeast-10 Conference. From the men's side, Andres helped the program to a 5-11 (1-8 NE10) overall record, which resulted in All-Conference recognition for seniors Joe Herin and Nkrumah Patrick (Second Team doubles) and All-Rookie for freshman Orlando Guerrero. 

In 2021-22, his first year as head coach of the Franklin Pierce tennis programs, Andres started things off on a high note. For the fall season, Andres led the women's program to their second straight NE10 title after going 11-2 overall. The conference victory saw the womens's program enter the NCAA Tournament, where they powered through to the East Super Regional with victories over Queens (N.Y.) and District of Columbia. The Ravens eventually fell to top-ranked Barry University in the super regional opening round to conclude their historic season. 

For the men's side in 2021-22, Andres led the Ravens to a 7-9 overall record as well as an NE10 Tournament appearance. After posting a decisive 4-1 victory in the opening round of the tournament, Andres saw the men also face off against another top-ranked opponent, where they were bumped in the semifinals by the NE10 top squad Le Moyne.
