The varsity tennis doubles team of Kristina Park ’13 and Taylor Coon ’12 lost to Thousand Oaks Thursday, ending both matches 6-1. The girls are the fourth doubles team in Harvard-Westlake history to get to the Round of 16 CIF playoffs.
“We weren’t really that sad when lost,” Coon said. “I made it this far last year with Kei [Goldberg ’12] so getting here was my goal and I did it with Kristina.”
Park and Coon advanced Wednesday after beating St. Bonaventure’s 6-2 and 6-0.
Wednesday, singles player Savannah de Montesquieu lost in the Round of 32 to a singles player from North J.W. High School 5-7 and 6-7.
These individual playoffs are separate from team playoffs. The team lost in the CIF quarterfinals Nov. 15 to Peninsula High School.
