Wu and Gajula Capture Historic NorCal Regional Badminton Crown
The dominant postseason run for Angelina Wu and Sahasra Gajula reached its peak at Independence High School, where the stellar duo officially captured the 2026 CIF NorCal Regional Badminton Championship in girls’ doubles.
Their regional victory solidifies their status as one of the premier duos in the state, coming right on the heels of their dominant performance at the North Coast Section (NCS) Girls Division 1 Doubles Championship.
Capitalizing on the NCS Momentum
Before conquering NorCal, Wu and Gajula put on a masterclass at the NCS D1 tournament. Showcasing seamless communication, defensive resilience, and an aggressive attacking rhythm, they carved through the section bracket to claim the Division 1 title.
That sectional victory earned them a top seed and all the momentum they needed heading into San Jose for the regional showcase.
A Season for the Books
Winning both an NCS D1 title and a CIF NorCal Regional Championship in the same season is a rare feat that requires elite skill, rigorous training, and mental toughness. With two new banners secured, Wu and Gajula have set a towering standard for their program and established a legacy that won’t soon be forgotten.
Congratulations to Angelina and Sahasra on an unforgettable, championship-gold season!
