People also don't point out who kids lost to, and that's alright. Peyton and Korber, neither are seniors, so I don't think that would affect the list too much. Thanks for the interest. Dude

Thanks. People also don’t point out who kids lost to, and that’s alright. Peyton and Korber, neither are seniors, so I don’t think that would affect the list too much.
Thanks for the interest.

What a great class of players. I bet the Freshman list was difficult as well. That is going to be a fun class to watch develop. :-) True indeed. What a great class of players.

It was by far the hardest list to compile, especially because they are seniors and I didn't want to exclude anyone since it's there last year. But cutoff points are cutoff points. Like I said before, we are lucky to live in SoCal and see all these great talented kids. The depth of the senior class you can’t deny.

Ali Makmalchi and Omeed Ghassemi were two other ones that were probably right outside of the top 7. Junya is a 4-star recruit on tennisrecruiting.net but he is actually ranked below Cox now in the rankings there and is close to Thompson even though they are 3-stars.

He is indeed a four star recruit on his way to UCSD and has won the Sea View League Singles Championship title two years in a row. Even though he lost to Justin Thompson, Yoshida has a win over Chris Freeman and Charlie Alvarado so far this season. I agree with Tennis Fan about Junya Yoshida.

It's just that Junya is a four star recruit (Thompson and Cox are three star recruits) and he has won the Sea View League Singles Championship two years in a row (2007 & 2008). By the way, he is going to UCSD in the fall where he will be playing tennis. Oh, I see.

He's a very good player. He did lose to Thompson at the beginning of the season, and it played a part in the final list. Junya was considered for this list. He’s a very good player.

I could totally see Kevin's game driving Chris nuts. It's just a tough match up for him. They have very different styles and both are great players. Chris has played a tougher schedule, I think. Ryan Peyton, Shane Korber, Matt Siow, John Huang, Reo Asami, Warren Hardie, Jim Myers, Trevor Dell, Mikey Zablan, Andre Halabi, Junya Yoshida, etc. My son doesn't even go to Mater Dei, but this is a much more difficult schedule than that of Kevin Cox. By the way, how about Junya Yoshida? He's a darn good player that should have been considered for this list. My son has played them both. I could totally see Kevin’s game driving Chris nuts.
