When he was a teenage tennis standout, one of Eric Styrmoe’s Tucson rivals was a young Robert Sarver, now owner of the Phoenix Suns. Styrmoe stuck with tennis; he played at Sabino High School and Pima College and then became probably the top tennis player in Weber State history. He was selected to the WSU Sports Hall of Fame last week and will be induced March 3-4 in Ogden, Utah. At Weber State, Styrmoe won two Big Sky Conference singles titles (and two team championships), later won 10 USTA singles/doubles titles and registered 11 Tucson City singles championships between 1981-95. He is now director of tennis at the Westin La Paloma.
