    UCSD Goes to University of Washington

    Over the three day President’s day weekend, members of UCSD badminton traveled over 1000 miles to
    participate in the Husky Open hosted by University of Washington’s badminton team. Unlike most
    tournaments that our members were accustomed to, this tournament was based on the drop flight
    format. This meant that everyone starts out in the same bracket and based on your win loss ratio of
    your first two games, will determine the flight that you will eventually compete in. The tournament
    began on Saturday, players woke up bright and early to get ready for their singles and mixed matches
    for the day. Junior Leilani Lu lost her first game but won her second, placing her in the D bracket. She
    won the rest of her games to reach the final where she played a close game and eventually winning D
    women’s singles 1st. Junior Eu Junn Tang and freshman Mitsuyo Machida won their first mixed doubles
    game but lost their second placing them in the C bracket. They played two more games making it to the
    quarter finals where they played an intense three set match but unfortunately succumbed to their
    opponents. Leilani Lu and freshman Andrew Li also played in the D bracket of mixed doubles. They
    played extremely well in their semi-final game to make it to the final. Due to scheduling conflicts, they
    were required to return the next day to play their final game, where they won in two straight games to
    claim the D mixed doubles 1st place trophy. UCSD did not play any women’s doubles but did have a few
    pairs that played men’s doubles. Unfortunately the furthest any pair got was into the quarterfinals of
    the D men’s doubles bracket by Senior Derrick Cheung and Andrew Li. The team all enjoyed this
    experience of traveling to play a tournament and we hope to be able to do so again in the future.
