Sands’ Win Clinches Pac-12 Shot Blocker Title for USC Tennis Squad By STEVE GALLUZZO Sports Editor

ake Sands has experienced many thrilling victories in his Jtennis career, but none have meant more than Saturday’s 7-6 (5), 6-1 victory over Cal’s Jacob Brumm to clinch the Pac-12 Tournament championship at Libbey Park in Ojai. Senior Brandon Holt (son of tennis great Tracy Austin) ripped off Sands’ headset before team- mates poured a bucket of icewater over his head, cutting his post- match on-court interview short, but the Trojans’ freshman phenom didn’t seem to mind. “It was very physical up and down,” Sands said of the first set tiebreaker at the No. 5 singles spot. “I was up most of it and then I served twice to stay back in it. Just a very brutal tiebreaker but I pulled it out and right when I won it [teammate] Mor [Bulis] split sets so that just shows how long it was. We faced a lot of adversity at the beginning of the season so I’m really happy we’re pulling it together and I’m pumped for the NCAAs.” USC freshman Jake Sands clenches his fist after clinching the Pac-12 Sands not only notched the Tournament Championship on Saturday in Ojai.
