Saturday Hi-Intensity Tennis (HIT)

SATURDAY, JULY 1, 2006

The morning started a little slowly with our last person showing up 20 minutes late. The mens group was there on time as usual. We welcomed a new player, Richard S., from the Long Beach area this morning. We hope to see more of him. The results of the round robin are as follows:

First Round
George/Harry defeated Bob F./Richard S. 6 -4.
Zack/Louise defeated Larry/Carmel 6 - 3.

Second Round
George/Harry defeated Zack/Louise 6 - 5.
Larry/Carmel defeated Bob F./Richard S. 6 - 1.

Third Round
George/Harry defeated Larry/Carmel 6 - 3.
Bob F./Richard S. defeated Zack/Louise 6 - 5.

George was undefeated for the 2nd week in a row.

It was good to see Harry returning to his old playing self.

Onome was playing on one of the courts this morning. He indicated that they were shooting for repairing 4 courts in the 3rd week of July.

The refreshments this week were brie and crackers provided by Carmel, cheddar and bread provided by Louise, apricots provided by Harry and sun chips provided by Bob F. Liquid refreshments were beer and wine coolers. Richard S. was given a warning for breaking Zack's edict of no light beer. He was caught drinking light Heineken.
