Our first loss!

We had our chances (and will have them again, as we are playing each team three times over the course of the season) but suffered our first loss to a very strong Smith team, 1-4, last night in the cozy (and dry) confines of the NERC.

1s: Gayle notched the lone win over Virginia Navid, 7-6 (5), 1-6, 1-0 (5). Great win over a very tough opponent.

2s: Melissa lost to Lisa Murphy, 3-6 3-6.

1d: After being up 5-3 in the first set, Jean & Joy lost to the resurgent Robin Bosley and Sandy Demski, 6-7 (4), 2-6.

2d: Neena and Wendy were unable to crack Denise Marshall and Patti Leland, losing 2 & 2.

3d: Emily and Jenn were on the verge of a great comeback, being up 5-3 in the second set before losing to Justine Clark and Donna Bertling, 3-6 5-7.

Good playing everyone-- let's get 'em next time-- which comes up soon, in fact-- next Saturday!

As for this Saturday: we are finishing up our first round of play, facing Zylberberg, who is currently 1-2. They have very strong doubles players but are rebuilding after losing many of their players to 4.0 last year. So they are a bit of an unknown quantity. Match is at Roland Park, 9 am ... Don't forget to take into account the time it takes to get to the courts from the parking lot, & see you all there! Sara will be captaining this match so contact her with any problems.
