Off to a great start!

It's always great to start the season with some W's to boost your confidence and our team did just that last Saturday! In the morning, we beat a much improved Baldwin-Wallace team 5-4. We always have close matches with the Yellow Jackets and this year it was no different! Rebecca came up big in singles, reeling off 12 straight games (who does that?!) to clinch the match for us at the #5 spot. Our #1 and #3 doubles teams also played very well and gave us confidence on the front end of the match. #3 actually had a comeback of their own, coming back from 3-6 down to win 8-6! Wow!

In the nightcap, we beat a young Malone team 9-0. We were a little shaky in doubles after the long morning match, but pulled all of them out. Then in singles, we were able to find a rhythm and won convincingly in every spot.

No rest for the weary however as tomorrow (2/17) we're playing a much improved Case Western team at home again at 6:30 pm. It'll be another good test for our young squad.

I'm including a few pictures from last weekend courtesy of coach Shoemaker.
