Kros joined Princeton's coaching staff in July 2021 after spending six years at Virginia Tech, which included two as a coach and four as a student-athlete.
2023-24 saw the Tigers use a youthful core to return to the NCAA Tournament, rise as high as No. 21 in the ITA team rankings and compile a 22-8 overall record along with a 5-2 record in conference play. Kros helped guide Princeton to wins over ranked opponents such as No. 19 Alabama, No. 21 Michigan State, No. 28 Cornell, No. 47 ODU, No. 58 Penn and No. 72 Yale while also win both the Blue Gray Classic and ECAC Championships. Paul Inchauspe, the 2024 Ivy Rookie of the Year and a unanimous First Team All-Ivy selection, was ranked No. 27 in singles and selected to compete at the NCAA Tournament in the singles competition. Inchauspe was also tabbed as high as No. 16 in doubles with Filippos Astreinidis, and the duo were named alternates for the doubles competition at the NCAA Tournament.
The 2022-23 season saw the Tigers rise as high as No. 49 in the ITA team rankings, and earn wins over power five opponents Ole Miss, Vanderbilt and Indiana. In addition, Fnu Nidunjianzan was named First Team All-Ivy League in his first season of college tennis and played at the ITA All-American Championships.
In Kros' first season on staff, Princeton, who ended the season No. 40 in the ITA rankings, returned to the NCAA Championships in 2022, taking on Arizona in the Round of 64. Kros also helped guide Ryan Seggerman and Justin Barki to the Round of 16 at the NCAA Doubles Championships, and the duo would the end season ranked No. 30 by the ITA in the doubles rankings, while Seggerman was tabbed at No. 60 in the singles rankings. The Tigers also defeated six power five opponents in 2022; No. 66 Nebraska, No. 75 Michigan State, Arizona State, Indiana, Wisconsin, and Penn State. Off the court, Princeton was honored as an ITA All-Academic Team, and had four players named ITA Scholar-Athletes.
As a student-athlete, Kros left a legacy of excellence. In 2019 he was a recipient of the National ITA Most Improved Senior Award in 2019, reached the NCAA Singles Championship and was named Second Team All-ACC. He also thrived in the classroom and was named to the ACC All-Academic Team in 2017, 2018 and 2019.
