Tarvet Named WCC Player of the Year to Highlight WCC End-of-Year Awards

SAN DIEGO – Sophomore Oliver Tarvet has been named the West Coast Conference Player of the Year to headline seven All-WCC awards for the men's tennis program, as part of the conference's annual end of the year awards release on Wednesday.
 
Tarvet becomes the fifth Torero to take home WCC Player of the Year honors, joining August Holmgren (2021, 2022), Gui Osorio (2019), Uros Petronijevic (2015) and Dean Jackson (2011). In addition, Tarvet joins Holmgren, Petronijevic and Jackson as the only Toreros to ever earn both WCC Player of the Year and Freshman of the Year in their careers.
 
In singles, Tarvet was selected to the All-WCC First Team. Stian Klaassen, Lambert Ruland and Iiro Vasa were all named All-WCC Second Team, while Savriyan Danilov was named All-WCC Honorable Mention.
 
In doubles, the duos of Sacchitt Sharrma and Vasa, as well as Klaassen and Tarvet have both been named to the All-WCC First Team.
 
Tarvet becomes the 12th Torero to be named to multiple All-WCC First Teams. In addition, Klaassen takes home All-WCC Second Team honors after being named honorable mention in 2023, while Vasa earns his third All-WCC honor in singles. Ruland and Danilov earn the first All-WCC honors of their careers.
 
Sharrma and Vasa become the second duo in program history to earn back-to-back All-WCC First Team honors, joining Holmgren and Joel Gamerov (2018 & 2019). Klaassen and Tarvet take home their first All-WCC First Team doubles award after being tabbed as honorable mention last season.
 
The Toreros are back in action on Friday, as they compete in the semifinal of the WCC Tournament, facing either No. 4 seeded LMU or No. 5 seeded Santa Clara at 10 a.m., at the Aztec Tennis Center in San Diego.
