In 1975, current UCLA coach Billy Martin (right) beat teammate Brian Teacher (left)
in The Ojai Collegiate singles final, and the pair advanced to the doubles final giving
the Bruins the William L. Thacher Challenge Trophy for the team title. The trophy
was presented by Tony Thacher and accepted by UCLA coach Glenn Bassett.
Glenn Bassett,
pictured in action
for UCLA, made the
final at The Ojai 74
years ago in the Boys’
14s. Bassett would
later go on to win
an Ojai singles title
playing for Santa
Monica College.
