Another DB blowout victory
April 29, 2014
The Diamond Bar badminton team continued its undefeated season by defeating the Wilson Wildcats 17-4 on April 16. The spotlight of the match was the boys singles and doubles team, which won all eight of their matches. The Brahmas now have an overall record of 6-0 and are on the path to win their third consecutive CIF championship.
“We did very well. Some areas they were stronger while there some areas in which they were much weaker than I anticipated,” coach Kemp Wells said.
The No. 1 singles player freshman Vinson Chiu, provided the highlight of the match, as he did not let his opponents score even a single point. In the boys doubles play, No.1 doubles team of senior co-captains Curtis Li and Adrian Sin showed reasons they are favored to win the Hacienda League’s doubles play.
“Boys single did particularly well. It was Wilson’s weakest so the guys won easily. I was pleased that the number two doubles team was able to beat Wilson’s number one doubles,” Wells said.
The girls teams, however, experienced a harder time.
The girls doubles had a tough time finishing sets and lost three of the four matches. The only player of the girls team that had some luck was No.1 singles player sophomore Krista Hsu, who achieved two bagels and defeated her opponents in a timely manner.
With the season coming to an end, all members of the team have their eyes on the CIF championship.
“I expect to keep our undefeated streak all the way to the finals and we can beat every team out there easily,” Wells said.
