Summary:Sophomore Jamere Holland and junior Elijah Wells of Woodland Hills Taft, two of the state's fastest performers in their respective sprint events, were non-qualifiers in the City Section preliminaries at Lake Balboa Birmingham on Thursday. Loyola (18-3) led the match, 9-7, heading into the last two sets. The Cubs lost both of them but picked up enough games to clinch the victory. A 6-4, 6-3, 6-0 sweep by No. 1 singles Bryan Ross was a big boost for Loyola. The Cubs will face top-seeded and defending champion Corona del Mar in the quarterfinals Tuesday. Loyola lost, 12-6, to Rolling Hills Estates Peninsula in the quarterfinals last season. The match location will be determined by a coin toss today.
