The competition was fierce this season, especially with heavy hitters like Coral Academy of Science Las Vegas and Boulder City High School rounding out the top two spots in the division.

On the girls’ side, the ladies of the team put in a valiant effort against Boulder City as well. Though they ultimately lost 7-11, there were victorious moments to celebrate. Senior Chanel Anthony and sophomore Nyomi Skinner both secured wins in the first rounds of singles play, with Anthony claiming victory at 6-1 and Skinner winning at 6-0 and 6-2 in her respective rounds. The girls’ doubles team of juniors Layla Burnell and Milly Khandpur also found success, winning their match 6-3.
