  • Wilmer Lawson Allison Jr W5VV *1904-1977* Wilmer Born in San
    ilmer Lawson Allison Jr W5VV *1904-1977* Wilmer born in San Antonio was an American amateur tennis champion of the 1930's. With all of this, how could our subject find W time for ham radio activities? Allison’s career was somewhat overshadowed by the arrival of Don Budge, but he was both a fine singles player and along with his frequent partner, John Van Ryn, a great doubles player. Right-handed, Allison’s greatest triumph was winning the 1935 U.S. Championship singles, defeating Fred Perry in the semi- finals and Sidney Wood in the finals. He had previously lost to Perry in the fifth set in the 1934 finals. He was ranked U.S. No.1 both years and World No.4 in 1932 and 1935. At Wimbledon, Allison lost the 1930 title to Bill Tilden. As a doubles player with partner John van Ryn, Allison won the 1929 and 1930 Wimbledon and 1935 U.S. doubles championships. Allison’s last major tournament was a 1936 quarter-final loss to Bunny Austin. At the University of Texas at Austin, Allison was the Intercollegiate tennis champion in 1927. In his 1979 autobiography Jack Kramer, who had a fine volley himself, devotes a page to the best tennis strokes he had every seen. He writes: “Forehand Volley – Wilmer Allison of Texas, who won the 1935 Forest Hills, had the best I ever saw as a kid and I’ve never seen anyone since hit one better.” George Lott, who himself won 5 U.S doubles titles as well as 2 at Wimbledon, wrote an article May 1973 issue of Tennis Magazine in which he ranked the great doubles teams and the great players.

  • Tennis DIVISION I MEN’S
    Tennis DIVISION I MEN’S Highlights Southern California wins third national title in a row; Nguyen clinches championship with thrilling three-set victory: Daniel Nguyen made a shot to earn a break point, fl ipped off his hat, started taking off his shirt and then danced around the court until his Southern California teammates could reach him and pile on. Nguyen downed Sanam Singh, 7-5, 0-6, 6-4, to give Southern California a 4-3 victory against Virginia for the Trojans’ third consecutive NCAA men’s tennis title May 24. They became the fi rst three-time defending champions since Stanford won four in a row from 1995 to 1998. “I remember watching Prakash Amritraj take off his shirt when we won the 2002 title,” Nguyen said. “I thought about doing it and then thought, ‘nah, let’s not do it.’” Seconds later he was tackled to the ground amid a wave of Trojans. “It was an incredible match,” Southern California coach Peter Smith said. “It all came down to the last match. How many teams win three in a row? These boys did it. This coaching staff did it.” Nguyen’s fi nal game featured a solid return game. He dived to save one shot and ended up getting the point. That led to the chip shot from the net that landed a few yards from Singh. “It was an amazing atmosphere,” Nguyen said. “It was unbelievably loud and it was hard to focus. I just seized the moment and took advantage.” Of his second point in the last game, he said: “I just saw the ball and ran as fast as I could and dove for it.
