He&#8217;s a great locker room guy whose presence on the team will be missed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Their greatest combined victory was in the CIF Division 4 semifinals late in the match against Mission Viejo.<\/p>\n<p>Sierra and Tan trailed 4-5 in their last of three matches and rallied to earn the victory in the game, and it also clinched the semifinal team win that sent Maranatha to the Claremont Club.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I feel like we did our part in leaving the program better than when we found it,&#8221; Sierra said. &#8220;When I struggled, Billy stepped up and it really impressed me. When I was younger, I looked up to the senior leadership and that inspired me to do the same as a senior.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sierra and Tan suffered just one league loss to Valley Christian in the regular season, but in the Olympic League finals, the Maranatha tandem beat that same team, 6-0, 6-1.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Billy worked on his game a lot in the off-season, not only improving his game, but also learning how to play big in the big points,&#8221; Hsieh said. &#8220;He&#8217;ll be one of our big leaders next season, who will need to take the baton and help lead the way for us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Tan gave his take on why they became champions as a duo.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Drew has lot of great volley skills and courage to take the challenges, and I&#8217;m more of a ground-stroke guy,&#8221; Tan said. &#8220;We talk a lot during the match, and our communication skills were good. When we&#8217;re up, we&#8217;re able to finish. We both have determination to win, and neither of us give up when we were down.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Tan is back in China for the summer, but wanted his partner to know something.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am going to miss Drew and the time we played together,&#8221; Tan said. &#8220;He is a really funny guy and he pumps the whole team up. I hope he knows how much he and my coaches and teammates mean to me. They helped me adjust to being in a different country, and I am thankful to all of them for that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Getting To Know Billy Tan:<\/strong><br \/>\nFavorite Athlete: Michael Jordan<br \/>\nFavorite Team: Warriors<br \/>\nFavorite Movie: Matrix<br \/>\nFavorite Musician: Jack Xue<br \/>\nMusician On Ipod Some Might Find Surprising: Coldplay<br \/>\nFamous Person (alive or dead) I&#8217;d Want A Coversation With: Bill Gates<\/p>\n<p><strong>Getting To Know Drew Sierra:<\/strong><br \/>\nFavorite Athlete: Lebron James<br \/>\nFavorite Team: Cavaliers<br \/>\nFavorite Movie: Back to the Future<br \/>\nFavorite Musician: Kanye West<br \/>\nMusician On Ipod Some Might Find Surprising: Justin Bieber<br \/>\nFamous Person (alive or dead) I&#8217;d Want A Coversation With: Walt Disney<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tan (r) and Sierra (l) shaking hands By Brian Reed-Baiotto, Sports Editor Billy Tan and Drew Sierra had very few things in common.
