COD (1-0; 1-0) opened up Inland Empire Athletic Conference (IEAC) play by grabbing their 54th consecutive Conference win, defeating the El Camino Warriors of Torrance (0-4; 0-1), 5-2.

In doubles play, the 1's team of sophomore Gerardo Dominguez (Thermal Coachella Valley) and sophomore Ian Rabtsevich (Minsk (BLR) Gymnasium 30) won easily, 8-1. The 2's team of freshman Nathaniel Jimenez (Beaumont H.S.) and sophomore Ethan Auger (Ottawa (ON) Nepean) took down the Warriors, 8-0. Neither team had a sixth player, so the final doubles paring was vacated.
