Best win of the season ... 4-1 vs Dysart/Baker

Yes, we achieved a milestone today-- we win 4 matches for the first time this year, and about time, too! If the story of last Wednesday was being unable to win the important points, the opposite was the story today. Everyone played very well and made the key plays. Note that all 4 Ws were in straight sets as well:

1D) Sue Lin & Emily defeated Liz Deford and Sydney Hopkins, 6-4 6-3

2D) Joy & Kelly defeated Sue Basch and Irene Baker 6-1 6-2

3D) Trish & Katharine defeated Ann Hubbard and Bonnie Thomas, 6-0 6-1

1S) Donna defeated Nancy Murray 6-4 6-0

2S) Sara lost to Ellen Lichtman, but got a set off of her this time (she lost to Ellen in straight sets during the first round of play), 7-6 (7-2) 2-6 0-1 (6-10).

Note the bagels in the scores. We have not commanded a win like this all season. Let's carry this energy over to tomorrow's match.

Duffy/Amoyal is just ahead of us in the rankings right now, with a 7-6 record (we are at 7-8--they've had a rainout & a bye, so have played 2 fewer matches at this point than we have). We have been neck and neck with this team all season, and a win tomorrow could put us ahead of them for the year (their remaining opponents are the 1st and 3rd teams in the standings, Zylberberg and Schlerf, so they could very well lose to both of them). Our match against them in the first round was very very close, so let's try to push through for the W.

Match is at Bryn Mawr at 10 am; come for warmup at 9:30.
