Local groups like the Girls Scouts of America, the Santa Clarita Boys and Girls Club and local tennis organizations like the Santa Clarita Valley Tennis Aces joined in with nearby tennis shop First Serve, Sports Chalet and the Paseo Club for a festive day of tennis, which included an appearance by local pro circuit professional Shubert who competed in the Beat the Pro competition. Also making an apperance was ambidextrous player Roger Garland.

A USTA Tennis On Campus exhibition match was held with top club players at Pepperinde facing off against Loyola Marymount with the Waves coming out on top to win the inagural Cougar Cup Trophy, presented by Len Mohney of College of the Canyons. “The Waves got us this time, but we’ll be back,” said Jocel Alcedo, of the SCVTA and a former LMU player, who organized the exhibition.
