  • 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.

  • Tennis DIVISION I Men’S
    Tennis DIVISION I MEN’S Highlights Southern California Wins Second Straight National Title: Daniel Nguyen didn’t want to part with the national championship trophy, coddling it like a baby on his way to do post-match interviews. “I think I’m going to sleep with it tonight,” he joked. “No, but it’s definitely great to hold this trophy.” It should be. Nguyen did his part, clinching Southern California’s second consecutive Division I men’s tennis national title at No. 4 singles as the Trojans defeated Tennessee, 4-2, on May 25 at the Dan Magill Tennis Complex. Nguyen defeated Tennessee’s Tennys Sandgren 6-7 (3), 6-1, 6-0 to help fifth-seeded Southern California (26-3) rally from a doubles loss for its sixth NCAA title. The Trojans defeated Ohio State 4-1 last year in College Station, Texas, adding to their titles from 1991, ‘93, ‘94 and 2002. “When you win like this, it’s a testament to great players,” Southern California coach Peter Smith said. “These guys were great out there. They showed their versatility. They showed their complete games, and most importantly, they showed their heart and guts to come from behind and win it.” Tennessee (31-2) has never won an NCAA title, also losing in the final in 1990 and 2001, but the Volunteers entered the night of the championship as the second seed and riding a 21-match winning streak. They struck quickly, winning the doubles, but then fell behind in singles and couldn’t catch the Trojans. “As a team, we’re very united and we care a lot for each other,” Tennessee’s Rhyne Williams said.
