Noah Tippen was announced as Mississippi State women’s tennis assistant coach on July 24, 2023.
Before he arrived in Starkville, Tippen spent two seasons at James Madison where he was an assistant coach for the women’s tennis program.
In his first season, he helped coach the Dukes to a 9-11 overall record amidst the program embarking on its toughest schedule in program history. JMU faced off with seven teams in the national rankings, with a win against 62nd-ranked Michigan State.
Four Dukes were named to the All-Colonial Athletic Association Team, as Kylie Moulin was a Second Team singles selection, while Daria Afanasyeva earned Third Team status. In doubles, Daniela Voloh and Michelle Los Arcos were voted to the Third Team.
Year two saw a move to the Sun Belt Conference, and JMU finished 15-8 with a 9-1 mark in conference play to finish in second place. The Dukes advanced to the Sun Belt Championship title match after picking up postseason victories against South Alabama and Marshall.
Three players were named All-Sun Belt, as Kylie Moulin was a First Team All-Sun Belt singles selection and Daniela Voloh was named to the Second Team. In doubles and after going unbeaten against SBC foes, the tandem of Voloh and Daria Munteanu were voted First Team All-Sun Belt.
JMU ranked top 10 in the ITA Atlantic Region following both seasons, being fifth in 2023 and 10th in 2022. Moulin was 13th in the region singles rankings this past season and 18th following the 2022 campaign.
Tippen came to Harrisonburg after spending the 2020-21 year as an assistant coach at Bellarmine University for both the men’s and women’s tennis teams, as he helped the programs transition into their first season at the Division I level.
Prior to Bellarmine, he began his career at his alma mater, Mississippi State. Working with the Bulldog men’s tennis team, he was a volunteer assistant for the 2020 spring season and was previously a team manager and racquet technician from 2017 to 2019 while completing his undergraduate degree. At MSU, he was part of its 2018 and 2019 Southeastern Conference championships. The Bulldogs finished with a No. 5 national ranking in 2018, reaching the NCAA quarterfinals. They also finished No. 9 in the final 2019 rankings.
Tippen graduated from Mississippi State with a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology, and also received an associate’s degree in business from Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College. As a player at MGCCC from 2015-17, he was the 2016 Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges singles and doubles champion and ranked as high as No. 44 nationally.
Tippen served as the Director of Tennis at Wildwood Country Club. Tippen was as an assistant pro at Prouts Neck Country Club and Magnolia Tennis Club, ran a collegiate development program and assisted in junior development at Inverness Country Club and helped with junior and adult clinics at Meadow Club of Southampton.
