    As everyone keeps saying,"this is a building year." Way to fight in the 2nd set! I have a feeling that next season we will start killing these teams and from there its straight through to Orlando and the National Title!

    We won 7-5, 6-4. It may not be your fault. Isn't this Laura's first year at 3.5? I didn't see any of your match, but when Jill and I played with you and Laura at that practice I thought that you guys would be ok. It was 5 and 5 so you did get some games. Maybe you just need a veteran 3.5 partner more than a recently promoted 3.5 partner. What did they pick on? Have you played with Rose or Karen? I know you would have to cover for Rose as she has great volleys and great range. They say Karen is our best woman player but I have not seen her play as they say she is capable of. Jill is a good player too but she suffers from what I suffer from in streakyness. We are both capable of cold streaks where our partner has to cover. On the flipside we can get so hot our partner can basically pull up a chair and take a load off. Hopefully next season has more matches so we can get more in sync.
