Meet Nick Stachowiak

Nick Stachowiak Headshot

Founder | Former NCAA Athlete | Coach | Advocate

“As a former NCAA Division I tennis player, I’ve lived the highs and pressures of competitive tennis. I know firsthand the challenges athletes and families face when navigating college recruiting, NIL opportunities, and the realities of life beyond the court.

My collegiate tennis career spanned both Duke University and Baylor University, where I learned not only what it takes to succeed on the court—but also how vital it is to have the right support system off of it. From recruiting to compliance to managing my own development, I realized that so many athletes could benefit from better guidance, clearer paths, and trusted advocates.

That’s why I started Game, Set, Stachs Advisory Group, LLC: to help high school tennis athletes and their families feel informed, empowered, and prepared—at every stage of their journey.”
