Green later added a straight set win over Alexander Ekstrand of Chicago to move on to the quarterfinals. 
 
Green advanced into the semifinals after his opponent withdrew due to an injury. Green matched up with teammate Kael Shah in the semifinals, winning the first set before moving on due to retirement. 
 
Green faced off with Ansh Shah of Case Western Reserve in the championship match on Monday. Shah picked up the first set by a 6-2 score. Green countered with a 6-1 in the second set to force a deciding third set. Green picked up the 7-5 victory in the third to take the championship.
