Fountain Valley, CA — The Lions opened up the first round with a 4-2 lead only to drop 5 of 6 sets in round 2. The third round was a tossup which left the Lions with only 8 total. KOach was really happy with round one but, not overconfident, dropping two of 3 doubles sets was a surprise to all of us. The girls rebounded to status quo in the 3rd round with 2 doubles sets and a singles win by Scarlett. Coming off a week of being ill, Ava Levitanus was awesome as she defeated the Monarch's line 3 player in a well-played set. All doubles were on form; Aerin/Brookelyn, Ellie/Julianna, Isabella and Naomi. Milana played well in singles, along with Scarlett and Peyton who all faced two D1 scholarship opponents. Ellie and Julianna defeated the Monarchs line 1 duo before losing a close match to their #2 team. They regrouped and took care of MD's line 3 team easily as both teams watched. No surprise to anyone, Isabella Geffre with Naomi Clarke swept all three doubles matches in great from, which hopefully should garner them a good seeding in the Trinity League Tournament next week. Next up, SM on Thursday, senior Day at home! Go Lions!
