He finished his senior season ranked No. 41 in the final ITA rankings after posting a 21-9 mark and was No. 20 to close out the 2023-24 campaign with a 20-7 record. Papoe was No. 80 nationally as a sophomore with a 17-2 mark. Papoe graduated with a four-year singles record of 75-22 to go along with a 47-32 doubles mark.
