Match against the rivals was pretty anti-climactic, we won 8-0 and by a game score of 96-26. I predicted their lineup precisely, and our first doubles pairing managed to adapt and survive. Were up 4-0 second set after winning the first, went down 4-5 and I was nervous. But they broke at 5-5, held serve at 6-5 and closed them out to win 7-5. I'm glad I caught it in time, it could've been one of those matches where I didn't notice until it was too late and they'd have played a 3-setter. Thankfully, they grinded it out and I feel like leveled up all the better for it.
Tomorrow we have the actual 3rd best team in the league this year, I was surprised they won 6-2 over the team who have more singles talent but no depth. It'll be a pesky match, but it's senior day so we're playing our core lineup and there shouldn't be any issues.
