After finishing last season 11-4 overall and 7-4 in duals for a No. 28 final ranking, the Cardinal’s top tandem has been almost unbeatable in 2009-10. Klahn and Thacher enter the dual match season at 13-2 overall, and have already captured tournament titles at the ITA Northwest Regional Championships and ITA National Indoor Championships. Klahn and Thacher pieced together a 10-match winning streak during the fall and are a serious threat to win the NCAA Doubles crown.

Pieces In Place This year’s club returns essentially its entire starting lineup from 2009, with the exception of Matt Bruch and Blake Muller. The extra year of experience for Stanford’s top four players should be of great value. Junior Alex Clayton, a two-time All-American, played primarily at the No. 1 spot last year and will remain at that position. Sophomore Bradley Klahn led Stanford in overall wins (35) and dual wins (20) last season and will play No. 2.
