Won 11-4, 11-5 in No. 1 singles as the 16-0 Bears edged Clovis East 6-5 for the section team title. She'll play volleyball at San Francisco State.

He said it: "Sam was very strong, athletic and very good in conditioning. Every time she smashed, the other player could not return; she was very powerful. And she had leadership skills, giving support to other kids when we did physical conditioning." — Bears assistant Bene Azali
