Gruenig and Vestli Serve Up Big West Tennis Player of the Week Accolades

Jorgen Vestli (Hamar, Norway) proved his worth with his second Big West Male Tennis Player of the Week award after a clean sweep of UC Davis' Michael Chin. The Tigers' No. 2 singles star then took up his doubles duty and dispatched the Aggie duo of Bartles and Fitch 8-2 to lift Pacific to a 6-1 team win over UC Davis.

UC Santa Barbara's Marielle Gruenig (Basel, Switzerland) had her hands full last week and managed to roll through all but one match in a busy three-day bash with Saint Mary's, San Francisco and Pacific. Gruenig didn't let anyone close to her in singles play, downing all No. 1 comers in two sets including Pacific's nationally ranked Vana Mrazovic 6-2, 6-4 -- her first win over a ranked opponent this season.
Gruenig also shined at No. 1 doubles, dropping Saint Mary's and USF 8-1 and 8-2, respectively, before suffering her first doubles loss of the season 8-4 against Pacific.
