What a great day to be a spectator to the team WIN! We were up against Keay who had beat us in the first round and we were able to pull out a win this time. There were some really great match-ups here and wonderful points to watch. The summary...
Court #1 we had Robin and Patti up against Janis Schlerf and Lisa Vieria. The first set was a quick one at 6-1 our team. The second set was a little tougher after it was discovered our team had inadvertently changed up sides to start the second set and thus had to continue that way losing, 5-7. In the tie break we ended up with a 10-4 win. As this was the easier match to watch, as it was the closet, it was a real pleasure to see some of the wonderful points played by both teams.
On court #2 were Jean and Cindy playing Brooke Ingram and Deanna Sandstrom. For me it was watching an exact replay of Mary Ellen and I who were matched up against the same team. Jean and Cindy lost the first set lose 4-6 but were able to come back in the second set from a 4-1 deficit and win 6-4. In the tie break they were up but took a few point losses in a row and in the end sneaked it out 10-8.
Finally on court #3 Katharine and Debbie played Jill Taylor and Sharon Gardner. Hard to watch this one so far away but it was easy to see there were some very tight points and games and was a fairly even match up. We were unable to pull this one out though at 6-2, 6-3.
Wonderful play by all today despite the drizzly conditions at times. Thanks to Sue Lin and Brian (Katharine's husband) for coming to cheer the team on.

Fantastic to watch today's tough matches. As Sara noted, it was hard to view #3 doubles, but good mental toughness on display in #1 and #2 courts to push on to the W. Congratuations everyone for playing well against a determined opponent!
