College Career
Reese graduated in May 2015 as a three time All-American from the University of Tennessee. Representing the Vols, Reese paired with Libietis to win three major collegiate doubles championships, conquering the 2013 and 2014 ITA All-American Doubles Championships as well as the 2014 NCAA Doubles Championship. During the NCAA Doubles Championship, Reese and Libietis defeated Kobelt and Kevin Metka of Ohio State University 7-6, 6-7, 7-6 in a final that, notably, did not contain any breaks of serve. The tandem achieved the #1 ITA collegiate doubles ranking several times during their career, including finishing the season as the top ranked pair in 2014. Reese also competed in singles for the Volunteers, achieving a career-high ITA singles ranking of #16 while manning either the first or second position in the lineup for the entirety of his time on Rocky Top.
On November 8, 2014, Reese hit a sliding backhand around the net post during the Knoxville Challenger that was featured on ESPN's Top Ten Plays and received over 100,000 hits on YouTube.
