CdM clinches 3rd straight title

The Corona del Mar High doubles tandem of senior Matt Chou and

sophomore Ryan Caughren swept to help the Sea Kings wrap up their

third straight Pacific Coast League boys tennis championship with a

13-5 win at University Monday.

The Sea Kings (17-1, 8-0) will now try to earn the No. 1 ranking

in Orange County with a win today over Woodbridge.

“[The Warriors] are No. 1 and we’re No. 2, but that’s not the way

we feel about it,” CdM Coach Tim Mang said.

Uni could have earned a share of the title with a victory Monday.

CdM senior Wesley Miller and freshman Fabian Mathews, who both

swept in singles Monday, will be the top two singles seeds,

respectively, at league finals, beginning Wednesday at Uni.
