Hey ya'll,
Let me just say that Wash U Club Tennis is freakin' awesome. Even though we didn't take home one of the 2 coveted spots for Nationals, I'm still really proud of our performance this weekend. There was a lot of great sportsmanship and team spirit displayed as well as spectacular steak consumption, including the ingestion of a 28 oz.'er by our own Max Rosen.
They said the match scores would be posted online but I haven't found them yet, if anybody does find them please send an email out to the group. Here's a quick overview: Team 1 had a pretty easy initial draw posting wins over Iowa State 3, U. of Nebraska - Lincoln 2, and Kirkwood community college. They then proceeded to lose a close match (19-26) to U. of Nebraska - Lincoln 1 in the gold semifinals. Our Team 2 had a tougher initial draw and after beating U. of Nebraska - Omaha, lost to Drake U. and U. of Oklahoma. They went on to win their bronze semifinal match against ISU-3 and then lost in the finals to U. of Arkansas, who isn't in our section so we basically won.
I also chatted with SLU's club president and we're going to try and have weekly matches with them, more on that later.
We have 2 more Sunday indoor practices and I encourage everyone to get out on their own time.
Finally, keep in mind that Nationals is April 26-28 and we have a good shot at getting one of the 30 non-section finalist spots. We should apply for a spot soon so let me know if you're not a huge Reel Big Fish fan and you think you can go.
Peace,
Nathan
