Edward Moylan

Edward Moylan (September 14, 1923 – May 26, 2015) was an Irish American tennis player in the mid-20th century. Moylan was a member of the U.S. Davis Cup Team, Davis Cup Coach and a gold medal winner at the 1955 Pan American Games with Art Larsen.

Career
Moylan's finest hour was perhaps the 1947 Spring Lake Bathing and Tennis Club singles when he brought to an end the 9-year tenure of Frankie Parker at Spring Lake. After his victory against Parker, Moylan went on to defeat Gardnar Mulloy in the final round of the tournament to win the men's singles.

Moylan won the Eastern Clay Court Championships three times in succession from 1954 to 1956. He also won the 1956 Cincinnati Masters on clay defeating Alex Olmedo in the quarterfinal, Grant Golden in the semifinal in five sets, and Bernard Bartzen in the final in three straight sets.

After his playing career, Moylan taught tennis and was the head tennis and squash coach at Cornell University from 1962 to 1972. He died on May 26, 2015, in Ithaca, New York.
