Men's Tennis Earned National Awards

The Pacific men's tennis team wrapped up the 2021 season 42 days ago, however they continue to collect awards for the dual match season. The Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) released the Oracle ITA Division III Men's Rankings for teams, singles and doubles.
 
The first award Pacific received is a team ranking of #17 out of the top 40 Division III teams that were ranked. Pacific finishes as the second highest NWC team ranked behind only George Fox who finished at #8. The Boxers ranking at 17th is the highest in program history.
 
Following the release of team rankings, Coach Pete Yellico said, "This is a great step forward for the men's program at Pacific. One of our goals was to break into the top 40 nationally. After the release, it was awesome to see us in the top 20 at #17. It is great to see three NWC teams in the national rankings as well, this will only help our conference moving forward."
 
The second and third awards the Boxers received for the 2021 season were in both the singles and doubles categories. Reyn Miyagawa was ranked number 39th in the country out of the top 50 singles players. Reyn's honor is the first time the Boxers have ever had a player ranked in the top 50 singles players nationally. The second award went to the doubles duo of Quentin Gonzalez and Sean Murphy who were awarded the #18 ranking out of the top 25 doubles teams in Division III.
 
Coach Yellico had this to say about the individual awards, "Kudos to Reyn Miyagawa for breaking into the national scene at #39 in singles. Big congratulations to Sean and Quentin for earning their ranking at #18 in doubles. They all had a great season and the awards are a testament to their hard work including that of all of their teammates that pushed them in practice every day. I am extremely proud and can't wait for next season."
