Growing up in Boca Raton, FL, Alshon began playing pickleball during June of 2022, two weeks after he won the Division III NCAA championship for the University of Chicago, going 18-0 in singles that season: “My tennis background highly contributes to my success in pickleball. Specifically, my doubles skills in tennis transfer over very well regarding eye-hand coordination.”
On the pickleball court, Alshon is known for his tweeners and trick shots. During his games, you will frequently see friend and neighbor Leigh Waters encouraging Alshon on the sidelines.
