USTA Colorado welcomes league coordinators

USTA Colorado has added two league coordinators to its staff.

Welcome back Jarret Sutphin:

Jarret previously worked for USTA Colorado for six years before taking some time to explore other ventures.  

“For the past four years I worked at a local brewery, Lariat Lodge Brewing Company, in every capacity.  I was a manager and bartender at the first location, and then helped to open their second location in Ken Caryl last year where I became a full-time brewer.” 

Working in the brewing industry helped Jarret to gain skills of thinking on his feet and handling curveballs at every corner, plus knowing how to make beer doesn’t hurt either! He is excited to come back to USTA Colorado and get back involved in the sport he loves and industry he went to school for, graduating from Flagler College with a Sport Management degree.

“Jarret was an outstanding member of our league department in the past, and we’re lucky to have him back with us once again,” says Rogers. “He brings tremendous enthusiasm and knowledge, and has been working diligently throughout the stay-at-home period.”

And a fresh welcome to Mary Brennan:

“I am from a small town in Northern Illinois called Wauconda (Not Wakanda, the fictional country in the movie Black Panther)”, she says.

Mary grew up on a lake and has a deep love for fishing, boating, swimming and the outdoors in general. Her dog’s name is Dallas, a 6-year-old Blue Heeler that she rescued. Dallas loves tennis almost as much as Mary does because he gets all the used tennis balls! 

Mary’s tennis career started in high school and moved to the west to play at Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction. She graduated with a Sports Management degree and has been working in recreation ever since.”

“Mary’s experience in the tennis industry as a player and facility coordinator will help her as she moves into a District League Coordinator position for USTA Colorado,” said Jason Rogers, USTA Colorado’s League Programs Director. “Her hardworking character and friendly disposition are a perfect fit for our organization.”
