My husband Jim and I came to Marks Stadium to watch the USC Men’s Tennis Team play a doubleheader against Cal State University Sacramento and UC Irvine.
He was sitting in the stands, waiting to play in the second match vs UC Irvine. Trojan Candy figured that it was a perfect time to interview Stefan Dostanic who is the Men's #1 tennis player. Naturally I walked right to the seat next to where he was sitting, tapped him on his shoulder, and asked if I could interview him. Stefan smiled and said, “Yes.”
I asked Stefan when he started playing tennis. He said at five years old he started playing soccer, basketball, and tennis. He took tennis most seriously because it is an individual sport. Next I asked Stefan why he chose USC? He said that he was accepted at UCI, UCLA, Stanford, and USC to attend and to play tennis. Stefan said that he chose USC because it was the best academic choice. Also, he had known former USC Men’s Tennis Coach Peter Smith since he was six years old. Trojan Candy is so glad that Stefan chose my alma mater USC!
More personally, I asked Stefan about some of his favorites. They were as follows:
| Food? | Cheeseburgers and French fries. |
| Hobbies? | I like to hang out with friends, paint at home, play video games. |
| Video game? | “Overwatch” is my favorite game. |
| Movies? | “Inception.” |
| Television show? | “Entourage” |
Thank you, Stefan, for letting me interview you. KEEP FIGHTING ON, Stefan!
Our Men’s Volleyball Team played their first home game of the season at the Galen Center.
Unfortunately, UCSB won the first set 25-21.
UCSB won the fourth set 25-18 to tie the match at 2-2. So we played a fifth set.
We won the fifth set USC 15 – UCSB 12!
KEEP FIGHTING ON, USC Men’s Volleyball!
