Congratulations to all our participants in this weekend’s MVTC April 2015 Mixed Doubles Tournament. The weather was pleasant despite the wind—and we had a competitive, yet fun day of good sportsmanship and great tennis enhanced by really terrific food!
For those of you awaiting the results with bated breath… the abridged version, with my fingers crossed! Things got a little confusing with people subbing in near the end, so I think this is how it ended up:
Division I (7.5+):
Main Draw: Catherine & Mike Puzon bested Mary Watanabe & Keshava Murthy, 6-2, 7-5.
Consolation Draw: Heather Green & Nad Karim earned the win over Nora Hayward & Bob Dickerson, 3-6, 6-2, 1-0.
Division II (6.5 to 7.0):
Main Draw: Marla Lindsay & Naroo Krishnan racked up a win over April Chang & Robert Bartruff, 6-1, 6-2.
Consolation Draw: Wanda Soon & Chris Li dispatched Fred Fox & Olivier Coquillo, 6-0, 7-6.
Sincere Thanks to all our participants this month— and especially:
· Special thanks go out to our Food Director Jill Nagahara-Evans, who organized and provided food for us—generating a tasty, and definitely appreciated repast—all while remaining competitive in the draw until late in the day!!
· Thank you to everyone who showed up early to help set-up… and those of you who pitched in to help put things away –and for making the day run smoothly!
Finally…We managed to strong-arm most of the winners into posing for the usual post-finals photos. Those photos should be posted on the MVTC website in the near future.
Thanks for a great day,
Katharine
