Here's an interesting layout of data:

Nondorf arrived in 2009, and since that point, UChicago Men's tennis has become a veritable powerhouse. Prior to his arrival, the team was generally pitiful - many losing seasons, middling performances, etc. Since his arrival, the team's only had two mediocre seasons (going 11-9) and seven outstanding seasons (including this season, where they are ranked #1 in the country!).
The shift, at least in men's tennis, pre-nondorf and post-nondorf, is pretty clear to see. All of a sudden, top D3 tennis players flocked to Chicago.
How did that happen?
