Mosejczuk and Dunyon Sweep ITF Junior Circuit Titles; Videos of ITF J300 San Diego Finals

In addition to the three titles won by Americans at the J200 last week in Canada, which I covered in Friday's post, there were seven additional titles for US players on the ITF Junior Circuit last week: two in singles and five in doubles.

Three were earned at the J60 in the Dominican Republic, with 16-year-old Dominick Mosejczuk taking both the singles and doubles. Mosejczuk, seeded 10th, defeated No. 11 seed Yannic Nittmann of Germany 7-5, 6-2 in the final, after avenging his loss to Maximus Dussault in last week's final in this week's semifinals. No. 4 seeds Mosejczuk and Dussault won the doubles title by defeating No. 7 seeds Cesar Mahecha and Juan Esteban Trujillo Hernandez of Colombia 6-1, 6-3 in the final. 

The unseeded team of Nina Costalas and Trinetra Vijayakumar won the girls doubles title, beating No. 4 seeds Jordane Dookie of Trinidad and Tobago and Fernanda Sandoval of Mexico 6-1, 6-2 in the final. It's the first ITF Junior Circuit title for the 16-year-olds. 

Jane Dunyon earned a sweep of the titles at the J30 in Austria. The 16-year-old from Utah, seeded No. 4, defeated top seed Ema Mravcova of Slovakia 6-4, 6-1 in the championship match for her third ITF Junior Circuit singles title. Dunyon claimed her first ITF Junior Circuit doubles title with Mariella Thamm of Germany, with the top seeds beating the unseeded Czech team of Amelie Brozova and Anna Jelinkova 6-1, 4-6, 10-6. 

At the J30 in Belgium, 15-year-old Stoney Cooks and 17-year-old Nadia Rodewald won their first ITF Junior Circuit titles in doubles, with the No. 4 seeds defeating the unseeded Belgian team of Hannah Claes and Marie Eennaes 6-2, 3-6, 10-4 in the final. 

Fourteen-year-old Sean Grosman and 15-year-old Zavier Augustin won their first ITF Junior Circuit titles at the J30 in Guadeloupe in doubles. The unseeded pair defeated No. 3 seeds Lucca Lafrance of Canada and Alessandro Sciacca of Italy 4-6, 6-4, 10-7 in the final.

Below are the videos of the finals of the J300 in San Diego last month. The girls final was played on a court that doesn't have access from behind the baseline, so there are separate videos for Clervie Ngounoue and Iva Jovic, while Kaylan Bigun and Roy Horovitz both appear in the third video.
