TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Robin Cambier has been named the men’s tennis volunteer assistant coach, head coach Dwayne Hultquist announced Wednesday. A former student-athlete at the University of Oregon Cambier joins the Seminoles after four years at Washington State.

“I’m very excited about this new opportunity in my career,” said Cambier. “I cannot wait to start working at Florida State University and be a part of such a great coaching staff and established tennis program.”

“It is unusual that you would be able to get as qualified of a coach as Robin, having been an assistant at Washington State and having him help them to their best year in school history,” said Hultquist. “He has really been able to help elevate their program.”

Cambier helped lead the Cougars team to a combined 61-44 record during his four years at WSU, including a program record 21 wins in 2018 that saw Michaela Bayerlova win the school’s first ever singles championship match. Following the 2016 season, Cambier was recognized by the ITA as the Northwest Region Assistant Coach of the Year.

While a student-athlete at the University of Oregon Cambier rewrote the record book, becoming the record holder for career singles wins (90), career doubles wins (93), season doubles wins (29), career singles and doubles wins (183), career doubles wins by a team (57), consecutive singles wins (15) and consecutive doubles wins (10).

He ended his career with the Ducks ranked No. 75 in the ITA singles ranking and third in the Northwest Region. In doubles, he ended his career ranked No. 55.

Cambier was recognized for his performance on the court and in the classroom, earning second-team All-Pac-12 honors and Pac12 All-Academic Team honorable mention.  He served three years as the men’s tennis team representative for Oregon’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC), was a three-time Oregon Scholar-Athlete and was Oregon’s male recipient of the Pac-12 Tom Hansen Medal, given for performance and achievement in scholarship, athletics and leadership. He also worked with the Pac-12 Networks, serving a three-month internship in the Affiliate Sales and Marketing department.

“We are excited to have him join our program and be the volunteer coach,” said Hultquist. “He brings a great playing background at the University of Oregon and great coaching experience from four years at Washington State.”

A native of Brussels, Belgium, Cambier graduated from Oregon in 2014 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration.
