Winning the game by a great lead of 21-5 in both sets, they easily defeated the San Leandro Pirates. 

“Me and my partner’s double rotation has drastically improved since the beginning of the season. I’m very proud of her improvement and hope we can continue winning together next year,” said Fong.

Winning the game 21-17 and 21-14, Huang and Lau scored another point for CVHS.

“Mentally locked in, preparing for the next point,” said Huang.
