The Guam men’s tennis team made history by medaling for the first time ever at a Pacific Games, taking the gold Tuesday afternoon in the team event.

In the finals against Tahiti, Danny Llarenas put Guam into a prime spot for gold by winning his match 7-6(7), 6-2. Camden Camacho put Guam one set away from victory after sweeping his first set 6-0, but then crumbled against his Tahitian opponent 2-6, 0-6, forcing the doubles match.
In the decisive doubles, Llarenas teamed up with Mason Caldwell to win it 6-4, 6-4.
