The women’s badminton team dominated the court when it faced the El Camino Warriors in their March 30 match. The final score was 19-2.

“We did well,” said Coach Bill Sanchez, three-time South Coast Conference coach of the year. “It was a good match for us and a great team effort”

Sanchez walked around the court at the Hutto-Patterson Gymnasium looking pleased with what he saw. The Lancers played well, and lost only two of their games during the match.

Winning all four of her games, Angie Ortiz had a great match. “There were a few tough games out there today,” said Ortiz. ” But we played well, like we know we can.”

Ortiz played against Corinne Belandres of El Camino and the two of them played a very good game. The two players exchanged a lot of rallies during their games. In the end, Ortiz came out on top, scoring 21-14 and 21-12.

“[Ortiz] played great today,” said Sanchez. “She was very aggressive in her games, and showed that by winning her games.”

Sanchez made some changes going into this match, as he paired up Betty Bermudez and Gabby Anjani for the first time this season for women’s doubles.

 “We did really good together,” said Bermudez. “It was different playing with a new partner, but we won our games, so that’s good.”

The Lancers badminton team is trying to go for its fourth consecutive SCC title this season, having won the title for the past three years. The team is off to a clean start thus far, with a 6-0 record.

“We have been playing outstanding badminton,” said Sanchez. “We will continue to play aggressive no matter who the opponent is, each match we play.”
