Meyers stayed focused and won gold and silver medals at the recent Special Olympics Fall Games in Fountain Valley. She took the gold in singles, winning two matches, including one in a tiebreaker. Her silver medal came in doubles.

The tennis team from Santa Barbara won more medals at the Fall Games than in any previous season, Frech noted.

Santa Barbara Special Olympians also did well in softball and soccer. The softball team went 4-1, avenging its only loss in the final, to take the gold medal. The soccer team went 2-3 in the competition and captured the bronze.

The floor hockey and bowling teams will be heading to Irvine for their end-of-the-year competitions.
