Cherry Hill East Tennis Breezes Against Southern in Playoffs

Cherry Hill East started out the playoffs in almost as dominant a fashion as possible, losing just five games across the entire lineup in a 5-0 sweep of Southern Regional Friday.

Doubles teammates Adel Boyarsky and Sarah Jang were perfect, beating Amanda Kessler and Sara Wright, 6-0, 6-0, to lead the Cougars.

East singles players Allyson Wolf, Rachel Pham and Gabrielle Zimmerman were nearly as good, each losing just one game in their respective matches.

The first doubles team of Lauren Romisher and Kristina Klinisova weren’t very far beyond, finishing out the sweep with a 6-0, 6-2 win over Jessica Hicks and Amulya Veldanda.

The No. 2-seeded Cougars will host No. 7 Shawnee Tuesday, after the Renegades eked out a 3-2 victory over No. 10 Toms River East.
