    • Senior Jong-Min Lee (Melbourne, Australia/The Geelong College) was selected the MET-Rx UCLA Student-Athlete of the Week for the week of Apr. 17-23.

    Playing in his last regular-season home match, Lee won both his matches against top-ranked and then-undefeated Stanford Saturday. In doubles, he and fellow senior Brandon Kramer upset the top-ranked doubles team in the nation, Alex Kim and Geoff Abrams, who have been listed at No. 1 in the ITA Rankings since December. Down 4-1, Kramer and Lee came back to win seven of the last eight games and post an 8-5 win in the top position. Lee served on the match point.

    Lee continued the day in winning fashion, clinching the dual match for UCLA when he upset Alex Kim, who is ranked No. 3 in the nation, 7-6(4), 6-4, on court No. 1. The dual match win crushed the Cardinal's hopes of closing 2000 with a perfect regular-season record and marked UCLA's first victory over Stanford in their three meetings this season.

    In Friday's win against California, Lee posted an 8-4 win in doubles with Kramer against No. 22 Erik Dmytrulk and Scott Kintz. He then went on to defeat Cal's John Paul Fruttero 6-4, 3-6, 6-3 in singles action. A doubles All-American, Lee's dual match record now stands at 16-7.
