After USC's run to the final at the BNP Paribas Open Collegiate Challenge in Indian Wells, Calif., junior Brandon Holt has collected his second Pac-12 Player of the Week selection of the season — third of his Trojan career. 

Currently ranked No. 17 in the nation in singles and No. 16 in doubles, Holt won all three of his singles matches, including two over ranked opponents, and notched two doubles victories to lead No. 16 USC to 4-0 wins over Cornell and Arizona State before falling to No. 6 Baylor in the championship match 4-2.

Holt and teammate Riley Smith secured the doubles point for the Trojans against the Sun Devils with a 6-4 win on court one over ASU's No. 49 Kellovsky/Ponwith. Holt then snagged a singles victory on court one over a top-75 ranked opponent, 6-2, 6-4. In the final against No. 6 Baylor, Holt grabbed his sixth singles victory over a ranked opponent this year with a 6-3, 6-4 decision over Baylor's No. 42 Johannes Schretter on court one.

Holt and the No. 15 Trojans are off to Texas this weekend to take on the No. 3 Longhorns in a 2 p.m. CT match in Austin.
