They aren’t county schools, but the Division II final between Brentwood and San Marino produced the most intense drama of the day.
The teams finished tied at 9-9. Brentwood counted up its games to 75. San Marino also counted its games to 75.
However, the CIF officials added Brentwood’s scores up incorrectly at first, and had San Marino winning the match 75-73. Brentwood was adament about its games count, and the officials recounted and the final count came to 75-75.
Overtime. CIF tennis-style.
The teams headed back to the courts to have the match decided by tiebreakers. They played the 3 singles and 3 doubles rounds again, this time using tiebreakers instead of sets.
Brentwood won the match in the overtime.

Wow, I always hoped that would happen in my high school tennis days, but it never did. I can’t imagine being tied on games in the CIF-SS final. Must have been pretty intense.
