Wings Beer and a Win for River Oaks

Five Seasons' Jim Seifer's 3.5 adult team put out a great spread of wings and beer even after loosing to River Oaks. I think they drink as much beer as we do. Wally Mueller used his unique spin to twist victory from Miguel Quinones 1 and 1. Grey Kennedy had a marathon match of over two hours against Jon Steinman. Grey was tested but won a second set tiebreak to cinch victory. In there ought to be a law category, Brian Reese of Five Seasons complained that Todd Renselman was too..00 tall to lob over. Tod played with Mack Thomas to easily take Brian Reese and Jim Seifer at 1st dubs. Two guys with 130 years between them, Lars Eriksson and Frank Mucklo teamed up to play Adam Ravens and Kevin Robertson, a couple of thirty somethings. Lars and Frank showed their age a bit in the second set but went on to win 6-1 6-4. Playing by themselves on the otherside of the club, Dick Lancaster and Rick Rogalski lost a long tight match to Tim Henahan and lefty Charlie Kutina. Darn those lefties.

And Seniors win again!

Lancaster's guys did again last night cruising to a 3-0 win over River Oaks 2, to go 7-0 for the season. Next week is a bye week and then home vs. CVAC on July 10. Have a safe and happy 4th! See you on the courts.

Looks kinda like the Courtroom.

Supers defeat North Ridge

Clark's super senior team devastated their nemesis North Ridge with a 3-0 win. Hank T had recruited a gaggle of new players this year, throwing the old ones to the wolves, in the hopes of once again reigning supreme over the super senior circuit. Our advice to ol' Hank...retire! The River Oaks boys are now in control.

Time problem

Yes it's true, Dick and Joe aka "the legends" , lost their court to a North Ridge team last night. Fortunately the rest of the team did their jobs and won the match 4-1. Maybe it was too late for those guys to be out. Our scheduled 7:30 match turned out to be at 9:00. Meanwhile we were entertained by the IT Girls looking fine and playing some fine Tennis. In other news, the Lancaster Senior team rolled over Mentor on Tuesday night.

Last Wednesday, The "IT" Girls of Summer, boosted their record to 6-0, with a sweep over Mayfield Village 2. "IT" was sweet. This week, after being on the road for 3 matches we return home to River Oaks to vs. Western Reserve 5. Let's keep "IT" going...

Looking for Michelangelo

After Thursday nights win it has been whispered that the legends of the court, Lancaster and Pare are to be painted in on the Court Room wall next to Edna. The Super seniors pulled another one out of their bag of tricks to beat a very active (by super senior standards) Mayfield team. Results: Court 1: Pare and Lancaster beat Norty London and Horace Simmons, 6-7, 6-1, 1-0. Court 2: Art Stehlik and Pete Gallo lost to Charley Brooks and Art Kraus, 7-6, 4-6, 1-0. Court 3: John Shami and Ron Longoria beat Marty Arscham and Don Vogel, 6-4, 7-5.
