On March 12th, UCSD table tennis’s Varsity team arrived at their last competition of the school year to play in the biggest collegiate table tennis tournament in the US - the NCTTA National Championships. The team’s first opponent was Columbia, and an unfortunate lineup order led to a 1-3 loss, knocking UCSD out of the main bracket, despite an incredible performance by Victor Liu. Following this was another 1-3 loss to Maryland, although club president Bryson Liu had an exhilarating match ending in a 3-2 victory. Following these defeats was finally a 3-1 win against Emory, with dominating 3-0 victories from Jiaming Cao, Bryson Liu, and Siddharth Vadlamani. The varsity team’s last matchup was against Duke, and two wins, from James Goodwin and Matthew Shen, brought UCSD to a 2-2 match score. The final match, a doubles competition, unfortunately ended in a loss for UCSD, and a placement in 23rd. UCSD was also represented in the singles category of the competition, through a qualification by Jason Lee.
