From Hokiesports.com: Oliver Mayo came to Virginia Tech from Canberra, Australia, where he was ranked the Aussies' No. 6 Juniors player. Mayo made an immediate impact on the men's tennis program, taking over the No. 1 singles spot as a freshman and holding it for four years.

During his freshman season in 1993-94, Mayo compiled a 22-11 singles record. He climbed as high as 54th in the International Tennis Association national rankings before injuring both ankles late in the spring. He earned first-team All-Metro Conference honors and was voted the league's Rookie of the Year.

As a sophomore, Mayo was ranked No. 71 in ITA national rankings at season's end. He contributed a 22-8 record in singles and had a 15-9 overall record in doubles, including an 11-4 mark when teamed with Marek Pfeil. He was named first-team All-Metro for the second-straight year.

In 1995-96, Mayo received first-team all-conference honors for the third year in a row, only this time it was in the Atlantic 10. Mayo helped the Hokies to a conference title during their first season in the new league, winning the A-10's Most Outstanding Performer award. He posted a 29-10 record in singles play, advancing to the quarterfinals in the Region I NCAA tournament. He was ranked 49th in the nation at the conclusion of the season, earning All-America honors.

Mayo helped the Hokies to unprecedented success as a senior captain in 1997. The team set a school record for victories with a 22-6 finish, winning its second-straight Atlantic 10 championship and stunning three top-20 teams, including No. 2 Boise State. The Hokies advanced to the finals of the NCAA Region I tournament with two wins - their first-ever wins in NCAA competition. At one point, Tech was ranked as high as No. 21, and its No. 28 finish still rates as the best for the program.

Mayo, meanwhile, qualified for the NCAA in both singles and doubles. He compiled a 28-10 singles record and a No. 32 national ranking. For his part in Tech's success, Mayo was named the Region I NCAA Senior Player of the Year. He was also first-team all-conference and won Tech's Cupp Award, given to the toughest player on the team.

Mayo's work in the classroom, where he majored in finance, was also honored during his career. He was selected a member of conference all-academic teams each of his last three seasons. He still stands as the only Tech men's tennis player to be named team MVP four-straight seasons. The award now bears his name.

Mayo currently lives in London, where he is an associate director for Barclays Capital, running the Exotic Interest Rate Middle Office.
