JOHNSON 6, WASHINGTON 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

The two finalists in the 2022 state tournament met at Washington on Tuesday afternoon and the Governors prevailed 6-1 over the Eagles. The last time the two met it was a 4-3 win for Johnson. Washington\u2019s third doubles team of Say Paw & Gay Ler Htoo prevented an outright sweep. That match, along with first singles were the only two that went the three set distance. And in a strange similarity, the winners in both lost the first set and won the next two including the final set exactly the same score of 22-20.<\/p>\n

Johnson, despite not winning at third doubles, nevertheless had a stronger showing in those matches with a margin that was 2.3 points better than their singles collection margin.<\/p>\n

FIRST SINGLES <\/strong><\/p>\n

SANDY VANG 2, BRITNEY LAO 1 <\/strong>(18-19, 21-16, 22-20)<\/p>\n

Johnson\u2019s Sandy Vang battled back twice to drop Britney Lao in three sets, the final going to extra points. Any player that led at 11 failed to win the set. And Lao\u2019s side out game, which led the stat table, was not enough to put her over the top. One reason could be the service game. Lao missed six on the day, but three came in the final set—two were consecutive (service three and four). Her last service error came with her leading 13-10. In the final frame it was Vang that stretched two runs. The first came with five points capped by an ace\/fan at 5-1. Lao went on a 13-6 run to build her lead to 14-11. Vang\u2019s next run of five put her back in the driver\u2019s seat at 16-14. Lao was able to tie it at 17 and then each player traded side outs seven straight times. Vang broke the string with the final point, on a two stroke error in the net by Lao.<\/p>\n

The first set saw a counting error. That is why you see Lao winning 19-18. Somewhere around the ninth point the slip up occurred. Vang, by my count, was up 13-10. Lao, who only had four errors in that set, had her second run of three to put her up 19-18 and that is where it stopped. Vang in the second set had the first run and the first lead at 4-1. Lao turned the tables and went in front 11-9 on the strength of a 10-5 run. Vang righted the ship with four straight and did not trail again in that set.<\/p>\n

Vang had the advantage on winners 35-25 with a solid variety of shots. On an individual shot basis her smashes out paced Lao 8-1. Lao\u2019s shot advantage was 8-6 in soft drives, but at a cost. Both players were close in errors, with the net looming large for both. Lao\u2019s net errors tended to be the soft drive that did not get over; Vang\u2019s tended to be of the power variety on misplaced slams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
