Koyanagi was the 2015 CCCAA State Champion and lost in the finals in 2016.  He was twice the Western State Conference champion in both singles and doubles. His freshman season, he did not drop a set in posting a perfect 23-0 record.  He also won two Intercollegiate Tennis Association Southern California championships and was a national runner up at the ITA  championships in the fall of 2015.
