Egon Luengo, in what had to be one of the great matches of the season, cinched the win for Lancaster's 3.5 adult team to take the NEOTA chapionship and proceed on to states next week.
Egon battled from one set down to get to a match breaker and win it 13 to 11. His young 20 year old opponent was disconsolate afterwards and had to be put on cry watch by his team mates because he double faulted match point. We think he was intimidated by Egon's brilliant outfit, especially those spiderman shoes!
Grey Kennedy took his singles match in straight sets by using his brain and letting the errors reign from the other side.
The Legends ( Lancaster and Pare) played their usual game of getting one more ball back and frustrated the 3rd doubles North Canton team. Der dinkmister had a great day!
Todd and Mack were up against one of the strongest doubles teams we've seen. Ackerman (the famous Ackerman, over forty with the body of an eighteen year old!) and Gross ( the big serve Gross) were unbeatable all season in their North Canton play. Todd and Mack took them in straight sets winning a second set tie breaker.
Lastly, Steve Poe and Jay Hanser, both of whom looked out of sync today, (too much party Jay?) lost to a righty and lefty from NC. Congratulations to all on this team.
