We lose to Schlerf/Keay 1-4

Schlerf/Keay really came out swinging today, trying to stay in the running to win our flight and go to playoffs. While we began the match with leads at 1 and 2 doubles, the Schlerf/Keay teams prevailed. But at 3 doubles Pam and Sara came back after losing the first set to take the last match, ending things on a very uplifting note. Scores:

1d: Alyson and Emily were up in both sets but couldn't hold on against a very "on" Rebecca Hyman and Sherry Dodson, losing 6-4 6-3.

2d: Joy and Neena started off great against Theresa Hodge & Barb McClanahan, but let the first set-- and then the match-- get away from them, 6-3 6-0.

3d: Sara and Pam prevailed in a hard-fought, close contest against Jill Taylor and Sara Turk, winning 4-6 7-5 1-0 (10-8). Way to hang in there and tough it out!

1s: Melissa played well but could not find the Achilles heel of a very strong Elizabeth Lee, losing 6-0 6-0.

2s: Donna also played great but just could not get the edge against Jeanine Keay, losing a very closely contested match 6-4 6-2.

Coming up are our last two matches vs. Dysart/Baker and Zylberberg. We currently have a 5-5 record-- let's try to close out the season above .500!

  1. A gorgeous summer morning for tennis and it was good to see our team play hard. We can be very proud that we won the first two matches versus Schlerf. Onwards to our final two matches and a winning season!
