New season, new team, literally!

Written by Jimmy Young

The Sept. 17 James Logan varsity girls tennis invitational brought teams from Drake, Clapo Londo, American, Amador and several others. The Husky girls lost to Clapo Lindo but pulled through and defeated Drake, stealing their fourth place rank. The team hopes they will use this experience to improve their game before season officially begins. The Husky varsity one doubles team, senior Kaylee Miu and freshman Alice Pham won their pro-set 8-1 against Drake. Varsity one singles, junior Lauren Hishinuma also won her match.

The girls next game is Sept. 24 at home against Newark Memorial High. Co-captain Shelmi Liang believes the upcoming game will be a “definite win.”

“The team has a lot of talent and shows a lot of promise. I am nervous, but confident. We’ll do our best and play to win,” coach Matthew Brahbam said.

With a shocking number of 14 new and eight returning players this season, the girls have become the underdogs of the MVAL, ready to come out bold.
