Despite a great run throughout the weekend, the Waves defeated SCU 4-1 to win the WCC title. Santa Clara exits the tournament at 18-7 on the season, 5-2 in WCC contests.

Santa Clara worked to come back in singles action as Tom Pham grabbed a win at the No. 6 position to keep SCU in the match. Pham defeated the Waves' Danny Moss 6-1, 6-2. Despite a strong effort the Broncos were edged out in the end as Brogan and Wong fell at No. 1 and 3 singles, respectively.
