FRESNO, Calif. - Fresno State's Hector Almada is the top seed in the 10th annual Wathen/Hancock Bulldog Classic, which runs Friday through Sunday in Fresno.
A total of 64 players from 12 teams, including perennial power California and defending national champion USC, will be competing in the event. Matches on Friday and Saturday will be played at the Spalding G. Wathen Tennis Center at Fresno State and Clovis West High School. All matches Sunday will be at the Wathen Center.
Joachim Lien of San Francisco is the tournament's No. 2 seed. He is followed by third-seed Robbie Blair of San Diego and fourth-seed Parker Collins of USC.
In doubles, the top seed is Robbie Blair and Jason Pangfrikul of San Diego, followed by No. 2-seeded Lien and Mason Fuller of San Francisco. Jeff Kazarian and Teige Sullivan of USC are seeded third, followed by Almada and Stefan Suta, who are fourth.
Suta will be defending the singles and doubles crowns he won last year. He is trying to become just the second player ever to win back-to-back singles titles. A Fresno State player has won the singles bracket four consecutive years.
