The Beavers started off their postseason with a bang. In the NorCal quarterfinal ARC, seeded #1, faced off against the #8 seeded Solano Falcons. It was a one-sided affair, with the Beavers winning all three doubles matches without dropping a game and losing only eight games in the six singles matches. ARC was led by #1 player, Ravi Nelson, beating NorCal #8 Hunter Bradac 6-0, 6-0.
In the NorCal semifinal the Beavers would face off against regional rival, the Chabot Gladiators. ARC started strong in the doubles, dropping a single game in each of the three doubles matches. Beaver standout #1, Ravi Nelson, nursing an injury, sat out in the singles. Lenny Lin stepped into the top spot against Chabot #1 player, and NorCal #3, Darian Quinonez. It was a physical match, with Quinonez getting an early break and holding out for a 6-4 first-set victory. In the second set the momentum went back and forth, with Lin falling behind early, and making a run to even the score at 5-5. Quinonez was able to break and then held for the match. The remainder of the singles matches were relatively routine, as ARC would only lose a single set in the other five matchups.
ARC will play the Foothill Owls for the NorCal championship on Saturday, 4/22 at 1:00p.
