Cmon, lets admit it. We all know that only reason Utah won is cause Geller was injured and couldn't play today. Geller was out of both doubles and singles lineup

Genesen had to be moved up as well to #2 singles. But who is this guy Dan Little, he beat one of the hottest freshman in the NCAA fairly easy. I saw the video and Alex just had no play on this guy's serve. His serve was huge.

Gonna be honest Dan Little is no fluke. He’s beaten both Holt of USC and Kikuchi of CAL and it seems like he dealt with business today, as well.

Since Stanford last won the national championships in 2000 this is the 19th year in a row Fed/Nost has made a similar statement--and he didn't even go there which makes it all the more weird.

Neel Rajesh, another blue chip coming into the Farm. Does this pretty much lock it up for NCAA title next year ? 100 %

I wouldn't say it locks up the title, but one thing to look at in evaluating recruits is the trajectory of their junior careers. Look at the highest TRN rankings achieved by Rajesh by calendar year:
2016: 122 (medium 4-star)
2017: 77 (very high 4-star)
2018: 38 (medium to high 5-star)
2019: 7 (high blue chip)
That is quite an upward trend over time.

Exactly, this guy never stops improving kind of like John Isner and Steve Johnson. At this rate, he could be top 100 ATP player by the time he is Senior at Stanford

I think it was a great year for Stanford. As usual they won nothing and competed for no titles but that's expected at this point. They did make it out of the round of 32 this year without losing at home and even put up a couple point against UV.
Here's to another great year next year, sweet 16 coming at you tree's.

Every player is coming back improved 200 %. There is no stopping the Trees next year. I predict an undefeated season all the way to the NCAA championship. Also Axel Geller will be individual singles champion and also will be Doubles champion with Alex.
