6th A vs Wits
At last we receive a substitute that earned us some valuable points (thanks Vevek)
- On at no 2 Gbow against Shashank - first game was tight with Gbow going down 11-15 then Shashank stuttered and Gbow took full advantage taking the next 3 15-9, 15-13 and 15-7. A good win for Gbow and the team. 3-1 for the good guys.
- On at no 1 our substitute Flip against Lorenzo a youngster who did not mind running a little. Flip’s orthodox style bamboozled the youngster in the first 2 games 15-12 and 15-6. Once he got used to this he started running everything down that Flip played. Next game Flip lost 5-15 and the following 12-15. Was another substitute going to lose at 1 ? Big battle in the 5thwith plenty of running from both players, Flip emerging as winner 15-13. Great squash match. 3-2 for the good guys.
- On at no 3 GG against an ever growing Roland – one or two long rallies in the first ended Roland’s challenge for the match. GG won 15-12, 15-3 and 15-10. 3-0 to the good guys
- On at 4 Gboer vs Shawn – was Manie going to give us our first 16 pointer of the season? Match was pretty close with Shawn making a number of errors and Manie nailing that backhand down the wall. 15-10, 15-13 and 15-13 to Manie. 3-0 to the good guys
Result 16-3 putting us 1 point ahead of our b team (challenge on)
Overall result: Won 16 - 3
