Topher's recommendation. I would keep the 100in2 head size since that's what you're already used to. It's a very accurate head size. I would recommend to go heavier than the 9.9oz frame. You are young, fit, strong, and you have a healthy sized swing path which means you'll have no problem accelerating the heavier racquet. The heavier racquet will absorb more shock, meaning less inflammation known as tennis elbow. It also means you can put more depth on the ball and increase your power. It also allows you to better block very fast serves back over the net.
Head: 100in2
Weight: 330g strung

Grip Size #4 - 4&1/2 with only one overgrip - the smaller grip gives you more wrist action & whip.
Balance - Between 0-7pts head light to feel similar
