“Overall, it was a great day for tennis, and all the athletes showed great sportsmanship and effort in their matches,” said Vanden head coach Stan Lewis. “I was super excited that the kids got to play a real season this year and get outside with friends. Six months ago I thought the only real chance we had for a MEL tournament this year would be a Wii tennis tourney played on Zoom.”

Will C. Wood 48, Vacaville 45
On Friday night at home, the Wildcats won a close one, 48-45 over the Bulldogs.
With the win, Wood finished 7-3 in MEL to tie with Rodriguez for second place. First-place Vanden went 10-0.
Vacaville led 14-9 at the end of the first quarter and 24-22 at halftime until Wood gradually turned the tables and led 33-32 after three quarters.
Sophomore Athena Brombacher led Wood with 23 points.
“She does it all for us,” said Wood head coach Carly Wudel. “She always has one of the toughest defensive assignments and leads the team in rebounds and steals. But she isn’t usually a huge point scorer. However, she really stepped up offensively. She was very aggressive and got to the basket consistently, including 15 trips to the free-throw line. It was much needed and appreciated on a night where our shots were not really falling as a team.”
“Freshman, Natalia Sanchez came up with some huge buckets down the stretch and finished the night with 10 points. Christina Edwards and Genesis Ernie-Hamilton pressured the Vaca High guards full court all game long. We were getting stops but couldn’t quite convert.”
Brynlie Headrick led Vacaville with 20 points and Audrey Valenzuela added 10. The Bulldogs finished their season with a 4-6 league mark.
