Congratulations to the first and second place District winners, who are headed to Regionals in April:
Jon Totorica, 1st place, Boys Singles
Anish Sehgal, 2nd place, Boys Singles
Amaya Yovanovich, 2nd place, Girls Singles
Paulina Razo-Zapata/Gavin Fonger, 1st place, Mixed Doubles
Reagan’s Jon Totorica took 1st place in boys singles, defeating fellow Rattler teammate Anish Sehgal, 7-5, 6-3. Both players won decidedly in all three of their matches leading to the finals where they challenged each other and played with determination to win. Both will represent Reagan at Regionals.
Taking 2nd place in girls singles with a 6-4, 7-5 win is Amaya Yovanovich; this will be Amaya’s first appearance at Regionals. Taking 3rd place and barely missing the cut for Regionals was Kathy He, who played a tough three set match against Kayla Surpless (District Champion) earlier in the morning before falling to fellow Rattler Amaya Yovanovich in the playback.
In girls doubles action, both Rattler girls doubles teams of Angela Pozos/Italia Valencia and Marcella Perry/Sarah Stevens, starting at opposite ends of the draw, won their first two matches decisively. Both teams fell in the semi-final round, only to find themselves playing against each other for 3rd place. In this tough matchup, Angela and Italia prevailed to claim 3rd place.
Mixed doubles team Paulia Razo-Zapata/Gavin Fonger won decidedly in each of their three matches leading up to the finals and defeated a team from Clark 6-1,6-4 in the finals to secure a position in Regionals. Fellow mixed team Diego Alvarez/Livia Washington fell in the semi’s but placed 3rd in Districts beating a team from Johnson in three sets.
We are proud of all of our Rattler’s who competed in Districts!! Good luck in the Region IV-6A Tournament on April 11-12, scheduled to take place in San Antonio. The top 2 players from each draw will advance to the State Championship on April 25-26.
