Gavin Sonntag won the singles, and Tarang Sharma/Arjun Sivakumar won the doubles, at the Big 8 Individual Championships. The tournament, hosted by American River College, is an individual event comprised of six singles players and three doubles teams from each team in the Big 8 Conference. Sonntag won for the second consecutive year, becoming only the second player in school history to win the event twice. Sonntag defeated Beaver teammates in the semifinal and final. In the semifinal he beat Sharma 6-3, 6-2 and in the championship he beat Sivakumar 6-1, 7-6 (3) in a very high quality and tightly contested second set. In the doubles, Sharma/Sivakumar dominated the draw, losing a total of seven games in the four matches on their way to the title. In the championship match, they beat last year's conference champions, Enrique Silveira/Sonntag. Silveira was battling through an ankle injury, and was not at full strength for the tournament. Other highlights from the tournament included Declan Moley beating Folsom Lake #2 Caleb Ion in three sets to reach the quarterfinal, Landon Arendt reaching the quarterfinal in singles, and Arendt/Moley advancing to the doubles semifinal. All six Beaver singles players and all three doubles teams qualified for the individual championships at Ojai. The Beavers will next compete in the NorCal Team Playoff quarterfinal as the #1 seed against the #8 seeded Reedley Tigers on Tuesday, April 8^th at 1:00p on the Freund/Donnelly courts at ARC.
