Johnson C. Smith University has signed Ohio tennis player Jason Stuckey to a 2006 National Letter of Intent. Stuckey will become a member of a Golden Bull squad which won an eighth straight Western Division title and finished second in the CIAA conference championships recently.

Stuckey is the son of John Stuckey and Regina Stuckey of Cincinnati, Ohio. He attends Walnut Hills High School in Cincinnati. He is also the younger brother of current Golden Bull tennis player and three-time all-conference team member, Justin Stuckey. 

At Walnut Hills, he was tennis MVP and captain in 2005. He is President of the Student Council and the Black Engineers and placed second in the Oratorical Contest.

His teacher James Martin says, “He is a great player on our solid tennis team and has been captain for two years. He will be an excellent college student and in the future a solid leader of the community.

Stuckey also participated in the Delta Sigma Theta Beautillion Militaire where he finished second.

Coach James Cuthbertson said, “I have had the opportunity to see Jason grow and develop over the past three years. He is a very quick and aggressive tennis player and a scholar-athlete who will enhance our university and our men’s tennis sports program. I was most impressed with his serve and volley game that is almost flawless. He will be a very good player for us.”

Jason plans to major in Marketing.
