3 More Points ! ! !

Ok Saturday went just the way we needed it to. Not only did we get 5 points (4 wins). But The Willows, for the 2nd week in a row. Only managed to get 1 point. I hadn't figured on them collapsing in the final 2 weeks. They have finished the season with 82 points. We now have 80 points and one more Match! 2 points will not do it, we need 3!

On Court one Adam and Evan had the toughest match. They lost by one game down 3-2 in the third on serve. It was a very close match, with Adam saying that "they just made to many mistakes at the wrong time".

The comeback win of the week award goes to Mickey and Frank. Playing on Court 5 they got down early and by alot. Losing the first set at Bagel. They regained focus and won the second set. Now at one set apiece they got down 4-1 in the third. Then started clawing their way back to 4-3 when Mickey hit a second serve Ace on break point to put the momentum finally in their favor and close it out 6-4 in the third.

Runners up for that Award were Chad and Tony in 4 who lost a close fought first set 7-6 on a 4-4 point in the breaker. But then they just cranked it up and blew through the next set and a half giving up only 3 games and winning the match by 4 games on time.

Court 3 saw the Pairing of Todd and Courtney again. This one picked up where the last one ended with neither player remembering which side they played last time. But it didn't matter as they won in straights with Courtney making about 15+ "just sick volleys. " And Todd's biggest mistake (aside from serving) was trying to volley in front of Courtney. 6-3,6-4

Dan got his first official A1 start of the season on court 2 with Arnie this week. And it took a little bit of time to get the rust off. After winning the first set 6-3 they decided that they would serve a little breakfast to the guys from lynnfield, and offered them a Bagel for the second set. They accepted and we got our 4th win of the day!

Now next week we travel to Lynnfield to play them again. I'm sure they are going to want a little revenge for this week. But we can't let them have it. As of right now we need to win 3 positions to make the playoffs. I'll be sending out some inspiring e-mails soon and to psych you up Watch this!



Yes Elisabeth Shue will be watching our next match.
