  • 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.

By 1941 the organization had over 100 female volunteers. During the terrible years of conflict she fought with the same determination she showed on the tennis court, ending the war with the rank of Captain. She marched down the Champs Elysees alongside de Gaulle when Paris was liberated in August of 1944. After a separation of four years, she was reunited with her family—and with tennis. She served as umpire for the “liberation match” between Henri Cochet and Petra at Stade Roland Garros on September 17th, 1944 wearing her uniform as an officer in the French forces. THE STORY OF HALL OF FAMER YVON PETRA, FROM A POW CAMP TO SW19 COURTS by: PHILIP PETRA AS TOLD TO ED MCGROGAN | Petra was posthumously inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport, R.I. His son, Philip, accepted the honor. (International Tennis Hall of Fame) My dad, Yvon, had a very difficult life. He came at the wrong time, frankly. By 1936, my dad was the 17th-ranked player in France. Two years later, just before the beginning of World War II, he was No. 1 in the country. His big victory came not in singles, but in doubles. At Roland Garros in 1938, he and his partner, Bernard Destremau, beat Don Budge and Gene Mako, the No.

  • Pete Allen Remembers Clarence Chaffee by Peter Allen, at July 19 Williamstown Dinner Clarence Church Chaffee Was Born in 1902 and Was an All-Around Athlete at Brown
    Senior Tennis 2013 – 1 Volume Six • Number Thirteen • Fall • 2013 THE NEW ENGLAND SENIOR TENNIS FOUNDATION BULLETIN Pete Allen Remembers Clarence Chaffee by Peter Allen, at July 19 Williamstown dinner Clarence Church Chaffee was born in 1902 and was an all-around athlete at Brown. In 1938 he came here to coach tennis, squash, and soccer at Williams College and remained for 33 years, until retirement in 1970. I was very privileged that Chafe was my tennis and squash coach here from 1962 to 1966; I graduated several years before he retired. He was a strong factor in my decision to attend Williams. His infectious spirit, athleticism, and emphasis on sportsmanship made him a lifelong role model for me and many others. As fine a tennis player and tennis coach as he was in his 60s, he was most inspiring to me as the squash coach. There were always plenty of already-experienced tennis players in every en- tering class, but very few freshmen had ever played squash at all. Chafe would entice his tennis recruits to try squash in the winter season, inviting anyone independently motivated to sign up for a private half-hour on-court lesson with him... every day if you wanted. He'd stand in the center of the court, swinging his racquet like a magic wand. He'd hit winner after winner without exertion, yelling out which winner he would hit next and why and how. What a hands-on teacher for anyone who was inspired to learn from the master and work hard! Williams played all the Ivies in the 1960s, along with Army and Navy.

Objectives: Students will be able to- • Gain background knowledge through vocabulary activities and comprehension activities (such as guided questioning and using appropriate graphic organizers) the geography of the United States and its regions, along with what it was like in the 1950s. • Form an understanding of the contribution that Jack Kramer made to the sport of tennis. • Demonstrate what they have learned about the geography of the United States, map skills, Jack Kramer and his significance to the game of tennis, and his place in history by successfully completing guided questioning activities, group organizers, and by taking part in meaningful classroom discussions. Common Core Standards: CCSS.ELA – Literacy RI 4.3 - Explain events, procedures, ideas, or concepts in a historical, scientific, or technical text, including what happened and why, based on specific information in the text. CCSS.ELA – Literacy RI 4.7 - Interpret information presented visually, orally, or quantitatively (e.g., in charts, graphs, diagrams, time lines, animations, or interactive elements on Web pages) and explain how the information contributes to an understanding of the text in which it appears.

    Tennis & War: World War II Overview: As students learn about conflicts throughout history, they will also learn about the tennis players/Hall of Famers who participated in these conflicts, whether on the battlefield or on the home front.

These activities encompass review of Common Core Standards mastered at previous grade levels as well as Common Core Standards Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects and English Language Arts Writing to be mastered at the students’ current grade level. Objectives: Students will be able to- ● Form an understanding of the way these wars impacted everyday life ● Activate background knowledge regarding World War II ● Gain an understanding of the conflict and how the tennis players’ lives were impacted by the conflict Lesson Time Suggested: Two periods Don Budge In 1938, John Donald Budge became the first player in history to accomplish what had previously been considered the unattainable: he won the singles championships at Australia, France, Wimbledon, and the United States, completing the first ever Grand Slam. With those victories came a rarified place among the tennis elite. 1937 to 1938 was a spectacular chapter in Budge’s illustrious career. Notwithstanding his Grand Slam, in both 1937 and 1938 Budge won all three Wimbledon championships – singles, doubles, and mixed doubles. In 1938 he crushed the field without losing a set, the first player in history to sweep the field in such a fashion, and in the final he deposed of Britain’s Bunny Austin. Afterwards, Austin said, "Donald was unstoppable that afternoon, almost unplayable at times.
