Biography

“Athletes like Brandon Gill are among the success stories produced in high school athletics today,” NHSCA executive director Bob Ferraro said. “He has worked extremely hard to develop his skills and has become one of the best tennis players not only in the state of Indiana, but the entire nation, and we are proud to be honoring him.”

Since the adoption of the current state tournament format in 1980, Gill is the first player, male or female, to win an individual state title both in doubles and in singles during his career. Gill won the state singles championship last fall, finishing the season with a 16-1 record. He was part of the state championship doubles team as a sophomore in 1998.

Gill attended Florida Gulf Coast one year before transferring to Butler University. As a senior, he was the co-recipient of the Butler’s Most Outstanding Male Athlete Award. He was also the 2003 Horizon League Player of the Year.

Gill is the current Boys’ Head Coach at Brebeuf Prep School, a role he began in 2014. Prior he was the assistant at Park Tudor after college. He has coached three IHSAA State Championship Teams over his coaching tenure.
