Slugs roll to Ojai Tournament
Dear Slug Tennis Fans,
Our annual voyage to Ojai starts tomorrow as we leave Santa Cruz for what is always a wonderful challenge. Ojai has been the sight of many wonderful tournaments for our team as it seems to bring out the best in our players. Many of our Southern California players have a personal history with the event and all look forward to the opportunity this tournament provides.
We have some very tough draws but I know we will rise to the occasion as our training has been solid and our motivation is high. Brian Pybas enters the tournament as the top seed in singles and in doubles with partner Parker Larsen. Brian burst onto the national scene as a freshmen at this event when he reached the finals before falling in three sets to four time Ojai winner and our assistant coach Matt Seeberger. Last year Brian won the singles and he is a past doubles winner teaming with team mate Max Ortiz in 2008. Erich Koenig is the fifth seed and is primed and ready for this event. Parker Larsen is also seeded and opens with a player from Claremont. Others competing in singles are Andre Halabi, Sam Rodgers, Erik Rosner, Yushi Ayabe, and Ian Stanley. To see the draws or follow the singles action the web address is: http://tennislink.usta.com/tournaments/Draws/EventDraw.aspx?T=99868&E=9&D=M&S=1
In doubles Erik Rosner and Ian Stanley are seeded in addition to Brian and Parker. Erich Koenig and Sam Rodgers and Andre Halabi and Bryce Bettwy round out our doubles lineup. Doubles draws and results can be found at: http://tennislink.usta.com/tournaments/Draws/EventDraw.aspx?T=99868&E=10
I am very excited to take this crew to the 103rd Ojai Championships, an event that has always been a special part of our season. Hope some of you can join us and many will follow our progress online. Best wishes and thanks for your support.
