SAN BRUNO, Calif. -- Jacob Sullivan and John Pearce have been named the West Coast Conference Doubles Team of the Week for the week of Feb. 6.

Sullivan, a senior, and Pearce, a junior, teamed up for two doubles victories last week for BYU, topping Montana State's Alexander Flink and Rok Sitar 6-2 before pulling out a 7-5 victory over NAU's Ruben Montano and Sebastian Eguez. Sullivan and Pearce's performance at the No. 1 doubles slot helped the Cougars win the doubles point and go on to defeat both opponents.

Sullivan and Pearce are 4-3 on the season at No. 1 doubles, including an upset over the No. 15 Yale Goldberg and Sameer Kumar (Stanford) 6-4 in January.

This is the first honor for both players and the first honor BYU has received this season.
