WESTERN TECH DEFEATS HEREFORD

Western Tech's mixed varsity badminton team defeated Hereford High, 7-4, in a non-league contest played at Hereford High School.

Senior Gina Wong dominated as usual. She is undefeated since her sophmore year.

Girls' No.1 and No. 2 doubles had very exciting close games, with Hereford taking both. Hereford also won the boys' No. 1 doubles and girls' No. 3 singles in thrillers. Both matches went to three sets.

Osman Ulug and Saad Syed dominated boys' No. 1 and No. 2 singles. John L Camonayan and Sagar Bajpai similarly dominated boys' No. 2 doubles.

Boys' singles No. 1 Minhaz Mahmud also played an exhilarating, close match. He took the first set, 17-16, lost the second, 10-15, before finally dominating the third set, 15-2.

Mixed Doubles was another three-set thriller, in which Western Tech's Danial Ali and Destiny Allen were victorious. Western Tech's Osman Ulug, Ashley Ball and Gina Wong are still undefeated in division, while Gina Wong is undefeated overall and will likely remain that way.
