   Fourteen-year-old Jenson Brooksby of Sacramento lost to second-seeded Raymond Sarmiento 6-2, 6-3 on Sunday in the second round of qualifying for the $15,000 Bakersfield (Calif.) Tennis Open.
    Brooksby, who trains under Joseph Gilbert at Arden Hills, won the USTA 12-and-under national title in 2013.
   Sarmiento completed his college eligibility last year after a decorated career at USC. He earned All-America honors five times (four in singles and one in doubles) and helped the Trojans win three NCAA team championships.
   Also in Bakersfield, ninth-seeded Connor Farren, a USC sophomore from Foster City in the San Francisco Bay Area, defeated Jeremy Hunter Nicholas 7-6 (7), 6-4.
   Farren is scheduled to play unseeded Victor Pham, a high school senior from Saratoga in the Bay Area, today for a berth in the main draw.
