MEN’S AND WOMEN’S TENNIS QUALIFY FOR NJCAA NATIONAL TOURNAMENTS

The Puma Men's and Women's Tennis teams have both qualified for their respective NJCAA National Tournament next month.

The women secured their spot after a third place finish at the Region I Championships held April 12-13. The Pumas were led by Sophomore Noelani Lui who is now the back-to-back Region I singles champion. Lui and her doubles partner Natalie Esparza were the Region I doubles champions.

The men secured their spot after a close second place finish at the Region I Championships. The Pumas fell to Region Champion Mesa Community College 14-12. The championship came down to the last match of the day where the Thunderbirds edged out the Pumas doubles team, Freshmen Sam Miyata and Bob DeVries, in a three-set thriller.

The women will travel to Tucson, AZ May 7-11 for the NJCAA National Tournament.

The Men's NJCAA National Tournament is May 16-20 in Tyler, TX.

Good luck Pumas!
