Sprouse is a student of Ray Frazier, the owner and director of the Riverside Tennis Club. He is the son of Charles Sprouse and Bob and Joyce Lewis. 

“Taylor will bring a lot of energy and enthusiasm to the SMC men’s tennis team. We’re very excited that he will be a Pioneer next year,” says SMC Athletic Director Mark Perdue.
