With dedication and no mercy, the boys’ tennis team maintain its winning streak, defeating the Westmoor Rams 5–0 on April 15.
Sophomore Jacob Goldstein led the Cardinals in the singles one match with a 6–1, 6–0 victory. Number two singles player, junior Maxwell Ho, continued the Cardinal dominance, winning 6–0, 6–0. Junior Ethan Trinh also defeated his number three singles opponent, 6–0, 6–1.
The doubles players also brought in two wins. Number one doubles partners, juniors Ryan Wong and Mitchell Wong, came out strong, with a 6–0, 6–0 win. Number two doubles, juniors Jarek Chu and Jack Ieong, finished off with a successful 6–0, 6–2.
Due to the lack of Rams’ players, there was no number four singles match nor number three doubles match.
Nonetheless, coach John Mohr is proud of the team’s victory. “Our players were aggressive in their play, enabling them to take control of the match,” he said. “They were into the game both mentally and physically, and their play showed their dedication to the sport.”
