We won the District doubles tonight down, after being down 2-6, they came back and closed it out 2-6, 6-4, 6-4. It was great because we'd only saw them once this season and it did not go well. So this was a mildly surprising upset, but I knew this team was beatable.

Gutsy performance though. We have a singles player and two doubles team headed to state next week. Not bad for a rebuilding year.

Our #1 singles and #1 doubles are going to be seeded and doubles will be the favorite to win the region (only 1 loss this year and it was against 2 D-1 offerees from Louisville). For the team tourney (new this year for the first time in 12 years), we'll break up our doubles team and have a stack at 1,2,3 singles. It will come down to us v. the local Catholic girls team... should be exciting!

That's awesome that Ohio is also doing a team tournament, I need to read up about it. Oregon really needs to step up our game, a team tournament would be a game changer here -- even with fixed lineups -- and the committee that meets to decide only meets once every 4 years so I have to get some ducks in a row this off-season and see if we can get the ADs behind our effort for a team tournament.
