Waipahu, HI- Today’s 8-1 defeat at the hands of UH Hilo may appear to be a sound loss. In fact, the Vulcans did indeed defeat the Swords this morning at Central Oahu Regional Park, but closer inspection tells a slightly different story and provides some positives for the upcoming Pac West Championships. #1, #4 and #5 singles were matches that were battled throughout, as Chaminade fell just short in these matches, either taking a set or just missing pushing matches to three sets.
The Swords were victorious in #2 doubles with
Natalie Phanphengdy and
Stacey Chaussoy winning 8-6.
In defeat, Chaminade falls to 5-8 on the year. The Swords will be at the Pac West Conference Championships in Kona, HI and expect to be at full strength. The tournament runs from April 9-11. Match times are yet to be determined.
