Chaminade University women's tennis player
Marisa Luna (Kahului, Maui, Hawai'i/Maui) is the Hawai'i Pacific Health Silversword Female Athlete of the Week for games between March 21 and 27.
Luna, competing in No. 5 singles against UC Riverside on Friday, managed to take a game off her Division I counterpart, Niki Shahbazi. The sophomore held her own against Shahbazi in a 6-1 first set defeat then staved off several points and trailed just 3-0 before the Silverswords' match was decided, rendering her match as unfinished. It was Luna's third no-decision in singles matches this season.
