Twins Allura and Maribella Zamarripa of Saint Helena took the girls 16s doubles title on Friday.
Lim, seeded third, whipped fifth-seeded Maxwell McKennon of Newport Beach 6-0, 6-2. Lim, 16, did not lose a set in his five tournament matches after receiving a first-round bye. He dropped only three games in the semifinals.
The third-seeded Volynets and Subhash beat fifth-seeded Georgia Drummy of Ireland and Alexandra Vagramov of Canada 6-3, 6-3. Volynets, 16, won the Easter Bowl 18s singles title last week at Indian Wells.
