Senior Chalee Batungbacal, who played first singles, lost her match with a score of 2-6 in the first set, 6-4 in the second, and 3-6 in the third.

Sophomore Mehana Fisher and senior Abby Okazaki, who played second doubles, lost their match with a score of 3-6 in the first set, 6-3 in the second, and 2-6 in the third.

Juniors Kelcey Lorenzo and Brandi Silva, who played first doubles, lost their match with a score of 2-6 in the first set and 4-6 in the second set.
