5 points

This week we were able to pull out a 4-1 home Victory.

Do I even need to say it? Bob and Dan won again on court 1. These guys are money in the bank. after dropping the first set they raised the level and won.2-6,6-2,6-4.

Over on court 2 Evan and Andy had a "who can hit the hardest contest" with the winner being our team as they straight setted their opponents winning a tough 4-4 tiebreak in the second set.7-5,7-6

On Court 3 Mickey and Chad had their win streak broken falling in straights to a very net hungry team. They just couldn't find a way to own the net losing (6-3,6-3)

Way down on court 4, Gary and Todd had two very competitive sets. Fighting off 2 set points in the second set to take the match 7-5,7-5. Winchester gave us a default on court 5.

So we have a bye week to relax and recuperate. 5 points this week helped us close in on 4th position. Only 7 more matches to go!

Push

We finally got our first win of 2007! Playing with a depleted team and calling up some reservists we kept our playoff hopes alive. It was a close one winning 3-2. But we'll take it.

Positions 1,4,&5 pulled out the match. On court one Bob and Dan rebounded from their loss from last week to cruise to an easy 6-3,6-4 win. Court 5 saw the Thursday Contract group of Mike and Paul R. hold on and win by games with a tight 3rd set.(3-6,6-0,5-5) Continuing his unbeaten streak this year Dean partnering with Gary(first win of season) also won by games.Just two though.(6-7,7-5,1-0)

Over on 2 & 3 Both teams lost 3 setters. Todd and Paul M. on 2 had opportunities to close it out in the 2nd but didn't get em,losing.6-3,5-7,3-6
Don and Mickey started out strong but couldn't keep up the momentum losing.6-7,6-3,6-2

With only 8 more matches left this year we are still statistically in the playoff hunt. Right now we are in 7th place 8 points behind 4th place. Once I get the updated stats I'll give you an update. Next week we have a home match against a lower ranked team.. Be Ready!!! The Push is on.

Go Pats!

Wow the Patriots had an incredible win. What a Game!!! Never bet against Brady. Now if we can only get him to play on Saturday in Winchester.

Ok So this weekend didn't go so well for our team. We lost 3-2 and went under .500 again.

Positions 3&4 pulled out easy wins. Double A (Adam&Andy) won 6-2,6-3 with Adam kicking his racket over the net out of joy. On 4 Mickey&Chad continued their win streak by laying waste to their opponents 6-0,6-3.

On 1 Bob&Dan forgot to show up for the third set losing 6-2,3-6,6-0. Over on 2 Evan&Todd Lost by games even though Evan hit the sickest return evar! 6-4,4-6,4-2. On court 5 Gary&Don also lost by games. They just didn't get the early lead they needed in the 3rd. 6-7,6-4,3-0

Next week we are in Winchester @12:30. We are going to need every point we can get. Plus players, alot of people are outta town.

Positions 2 and 5 kept us in the playoff hunt with straight set wins. Dan and Bob Playing in 2, revenged their loss in week one.(7-5,6-3) Chad and Mickey on 5 came through to get our second point.(7-5,6-4).

Adam and Evan on court 1 had a bad day falling 7-5,6-4. But not as bad as over on court 3 where Todd and Andy playing in their worst form ever.EVER! Got bagel'd in the second set.(6-4,6-0) And on court 4 Paul and Don ran into a tough team.(6-3,6-3)

Next week we are up against a full Bass River team. We beat their 2nd tier team 4-1 last time and really need to beat their 1st tier team 4-1 this time also.
