STANFORD, Calif. – Incoming freshman Valerie Glozman was named a recipient of the 2024 USTA National Junior Scholar Athlete Award, the organization announced as last week’s USTA National Championships.
Glozman is the No.1-ranked 18-and-under player in the country, a distinction she has held at various times over the past two years. She has won numerous junior titles, including back-to-back singles titles at the FILA Easter Bowl and helped lead the U.S. team to the Junior Billie Jean King Cup title in 2022. She earned a U.S. Open qualifier for the third straight year by virtue of her runner-up finish at the 2024 USTA Billie Jean King Girls’ 18s National Championships.
In the classroom, she holds a 4.0 cumulative GPA and has earned over a dozen college credits from a dual-enrollment program. She is a member of the Key Club and Sustainability Club and has served as a volunteer tennis coach in her community.
This is the 12th year the USTA has awarded its National Junior Scholar Athlete award. To qualify, students must have an unweighted GPA of 3.75 on a 4.0 scale and be ranked in the Top 100 of the USTA Boys’ or Girls’ 18s national standings. A written essay, as well as leadership and sportsmanship, were also considered.
