Boys Tennis Beats West Torrance 

 

            Boy’s tennis was scheduled to play west Torrance two times. Once at the West Torrance home courts, and once at El Segundo Recreational Park. The first match was scheduled for 2:30 pm at West Torrance. The Eagles had Christian Florido playing the number three position, Jean-Pierre Badon playing number two, and Jason Van Patten playing number one. This wasn’t the actual line up but they put their strongest players in the back of the line up. This helped the team deceive West Torrance, with their number three player playing number one.

The first meeting, the team played very well, and the Eagles won by a close counting. The second time the two teams played, it went in the opposite direction. The Eagles, faulted many times in their doubles matches. Mostly the doubles players lost their composure during big points. They were not prepared for the strong doubles line up that West Torrance had. Furthermore, Christian Florido and Jason Van Patten play was worthy of awards in both meetings. Jean-Pierre was not present at the second match.

Coach Kirby Onaga explains, “The doubles players were not focused during their matches. They goofed off in practice and it showed in the match.”

Boy’s tennis also played Chadwick in Palos Verde’s. The match was scheduled for 3:45pm at the Peninsula Racquet Centre. The team did horribly losing in singles and doubles. Chadwick’s team is very impressive though, with one of the best players in High School Tennis.

All matches that have been played been played before March 20, 2002 were not league matches, and they do not count for a league record. The Eagles play a match every Tuesday and Thursday. Besides the other matches that are non-league matches. Every match is usually scheduled for a 2:30 pm start and a 4:30 pm end. All home matches are played at Rec. Park, while J.V. plays at the high school.
