Hosting nationals

As a lot of you know, Oberlin had the privilege of hosting the 2010 D-III Men's Tennis National Championships a few weeks ago. The event ran very smoothly and all of the coaches and participants were complimentary of our awesome facilities and very helpful staff. We were also fortunate to have great weather (no rain and temps into the 80's!) so that helped things a lot. Ariel & Finley stayed on campus and volunteered their time and helped with set-up and break down, reporting scores for the Live Stats, and other odds & ends.

The Hunsinger courts have never looked better and were all "dressed up" with banners, flowers, extra bleachers, etc. Here's a quick video:

Hands down, the spirit award goes to North Central College from Illinois who travelled with lots of (loud) fans, their own TV/video crew, and even their school mascot! Check this out:
