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.
