Lupe and Julia won the first match for Lick against Kelseyville (7-5, 6-3).

Moving on to the semi finals, the Lick-Wilmerding doubles team played against Head Royce. Lupe and Julia lost in two sets, (1-6, 0-6).

Because of the first win, Lupe and Julia were invited back the next day to play for third place against College Prep. After a hard first set that Lick lost (2- 6), the girls buckled up and got focused. Winning the second set (7-5), a third set was in order. Both energy and emotions were running high. The wind picked up and caused the ball to bounce unpredictably. The match went into the second hour of play. The third set turned into an intense battle, but ultimately Lick pulled out the W; Lupe and Julia won the third set (6-4).
