NOTES

Santa Clara returns home for a pair of West Coast Conference matches against BYU and San Diego this weekend.
The Broncos went 0-2 last week losing both WCC matches on the road at Portland and Gonzaga.
The Broncos are 6-1 at home this season but are 0-6 on the road and 1-1 in neutral site matches.
On March 29 Guillaume Dalmasso was named WCC Singles Player of the Week after he moved atop the singles lineup and posted a 2-0 record with wins over SMC's James Watt and Pacific's Aleska Mardjonovic. His match against Yale's Michael Sun went unfinished, the first unfinished match he has had all season.
Dalmasso tops the team with 22 singles wins this season and a 10-3 dual match record. He has won 14 of his last 17 matches.
Mann Shah leads with 10 doubles victories on the year with eight wins coming during the spring.
Shah won two titles during the fall, the top-flight singles title at the UC Davis Aggie Invitational and the ITA Super Regionals consolation bracket singles title.
Dalmasso was the singles runner-up at the ITA Northwest Regional Championship's main draw while junior Ryan Ali was the runner-up in the consolation bracket.
Dalmasso tops the team with 12 singles wins while Shah and Neuhaus have nine each.
Shah and James Bell led the fall with three doubles wins each.
Santa Clara returns seven players (Ryan Ali, Nick Cmager, Guillaume Dalmasso, Santiago Hinojosa, Arthur Neuhaus, Matthew Rodriguez and Mann Shah) from last season when it finished 8-7, 4-4 WCC, including victories in five of the last six matches in an abbreviated campaign composed of only the spring season. The Broncos added one newcomer, James Bell, who transferred from Louisville.
The Broncos finished No. 5 in the Spring 2021 Oracle Intercollegiate Tennis Association regional team rankings. Shah finished top-20 in singles with Arthur Neuhaus ranked No. 5 in doubles.
Last spring, Neuhaus was named All-WCC Second Team Doubles where he tied for the team lead (alongside Dominic Barretto) with six doubles victories and led the team with nine singles wins.
Shah earned his first conference honor when he finished the spring 7-8 including 3-7 at No. 1 and 4-1 at No. 2. The sophomore from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India won three of his last four matches.
Head coach Niall Angus is in his sixth year as the head coach. Entering the 2021-22 season, Angus owned a 58-41 career record and coached eight all-conference singles, seven all-conference doubles and nine conference all-academic honorees.
