Puget seemed like a stack playing 5 last year. He crushed Hanfmann in
this event and was steamrolling him in the NCAA team semis when the match was stopped last year. Puget also beat Gomez and his teammate Giron in this event. I keep thinking how USC was literally within a point or 2 of losing to UCLA in the semis last year. It seems like that no matter how good a team anyone has, it is still usually a fine line between winning it all and not. UCLA had chances to win the deciding doubles match that was decided 8-6 in a TB. And, Novikov had chances too before losing to Nguyen 7-6 in the 3rd. If UCLA wins either one of those matches (#2 doubles or at #3 singles), they win the match, because they were winning #5 and #6 with Mrktchian, who also pushed Sarmiento (5 & 4) this weekend.
