Butler and men's tennis head coach Sam Miles have signed a trio of prep standouts.
 
Alex Borbiu, Shane Hand and Wes Worobel will join the Bulldog roster beginning with the upcoming 2026-27 season.
 
"We're excited to welcome Alex, Shane, and Wes to the Butler Tennis Family," said Miles. "All three have the work ethic, character and competitive spirit that fit our program. They each bring great size, athleticism and upside, and we believe their best tennis is still ahead of them. Just as importantly, they are outstanding young men who will make a positive impact on our team culture from day one."
 
Borbiu is ranked among the Top 30 in the 18U age group of United State Junior Tennis. Hailing from Vernon Hills, Ill., Borbiu is ranked among the Top 3 players in the state of Illinois.
 
Hand arrives at Butler from Powell, Ohio and Olentangy Liberty High School. He went undefeated during the 2025 and 2026 seasons, combining for a 52-0 record. Hand was a three-time All-State first-team honoree. He twice placed fourth in state division 1. In each of the last three years, he was named Player of the Year, Team MVP and team captain.
 
In USTA competition, Hand won the Midwest Closed doubles title and was a finalist at the Indoor Midwest Closed.
 
Worobel played at Carmel High School just north of the Butler campus. The four-year letterwinner helped Carmel to two state championships. Worobel was an All-State first-team selection following a 32-1 singles record at the No. 1 spot in the line-up.
