IRVINE, Calif. – The Golden Eagles tennis teams took on the visiting squad Hilo Vulcans, which was a dominant display for the program.

The first team to start Friday’s competition was the women’s team, and got the ball rolling. Doubles matches began, and the Vulcans and Golden Eagles were head-to-head in terms of winning one doubles match, and then CUI would win one. The clinching game to give CUI the point was an impressive display of drop shots, power, and wisdom from Bryn Johnson and Emilie Lugon-Moulin to lead 1-0 going into singles.

Moving onto the men’s tennis matches, the Golden Eagles followed up with their teammates in another dominant display. The men’s matches were highly competitive, including the doubles matches. Spencer Cinco and Lemiel Tairahoy clinched the point for CUI to lead 1-0 going into singles matches.
