The Bayport-Blue Point sister duo of Emilia and Evangelina Romano felt heartbreak last season and used that fuel to capture this years Suffolk County doubles championship.
A season ago the team lost the New York State Championship to Matilda Buchen & Julia Stabile of Westhampton Beach in the finals.
This year they took on Westhampton Beach again, but Buchen had a new partner in Ava Borruso.
Remembering the heartbreak was last season the Romano sisters looked even more determined and on their game as they won with a 6-3 and 6-4 victory.
From the very beginning you could see that they had a well designed game plan and executed it to perfection. The team controlled the pace and later explained their strategy about playing into each others strengths.
The Romanos will now head to the New York State Public High School Athletic Association (NYSPHSAA) Individual Championships at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. Buchen & Borruso will also be going to the event we well.
