"We could not be more excited to welcome Charlie to Oklahoma State and Cowboy Tennis," Taylor said. "While his tennis brought him to our attention, it was his true character and desire to become the best he possibly can be that solidified our desire to make him a Cowboy. We believe his work ethic and passion to get the most out of himself, as well as his teammates, will propel him to excel in the college tennis world, both on and off the court."
