Week 12 – The Race to the Top and getting of the Hot Seats!
The Top 6
The two hottest teams in paddle squared off not only for points in
the
D1 league, top honors for the club, and the added pressure of
picking up
the dinner tab to the loser. Waynesborough-1 (21.5 pts) held off
their
fellow club members Waynesborough-2 (15 pts) in a highly contested
battle. Three of the four matches were decided in the third set.
With
the match coming down to court 1, the undefeated team of Vlatko and
Steve Beers dropped the third and decisive set with Mr. Paddle
McAvoy
and Hank Oberly to give Way-1 the match. It should be noted that
Bill
DeLaney’s match win streak is now at 5 as he and Scott “I never
argue a
bad call” Bassett took down Doc Goldberg and Paul McCabe in three
tough
sets to secure Way-2’s only victory on the court. Coupled with
Martins-1
loss yesterday, Way-1 has now opened up a 3.5 point lead as Captain
Safford looks forward to running the table with the rest of the D1
league. Captain Safford, although could not be there in person
stated
that defeating Way-2 could have sealed their League Championship
for
2010 as he thought this was the team to beat and sees them as a
likely
candidate to take second place.
P-Country (16.5 pts) Jumps into third place with their victory over
Martins-1(18 pts) this week. Martins-1 only victory came on court 1
as
the Falatek and Frigerio team have won their 13th consecutive match
on
court 1 and have only lost once in their last 22 matches. P-Country
looks forward to their match with Way-2 next week as the Easttown
Police
department will be on hand to settle any disputed calls between the
two
squads.

P-Cricket (15.5 pts) defeated Overbrook (13.5 pts) last week by a
score
of 3 courts to 1. Overbrook has now lost 6 out of their last 7
matches
and it will not get any easier this week as they are heading into
the
Way-1 juggernaut. A win over Martins-1 next week, could move
P-Cricket
.5 point out of second place.
The Bottom 6
Kennett (7.5 pts) makes a loud statement as they open up the second
half
of the season with a sweep of all four courts over Vic Mead (5.5
pts)
and takes them out of the cellar spots. Courts 2 and 3 were won
after
splitting sets making this victory all the sweeter for Kennett.
Next up
for Kennett is Martins-2. A victory here will almost assure them of
a
spot in D1 next season. Vic Mead hosts Aronimink next week and
needs to
pick up some points soon to get out of the bottom 2 spots.
At the top of the bottom, Aronimink (13.5 pts) defeated Merion
(12.5
pts) three courts to one to take over first place of the bottom.
Aronimink travels to Vic Mead while Merion travels to Kennett next
week.
Greenville (12.5 pts) also separates themselves from the bottom of
the
pack with a victory over Martins-2 (5.5 pts) making the top of the
bottom of the pack a very close contest. Martins-2 desperately
needs a
victory over Kennett next week in order for them to stay in D1 next
season. A loss here would really put their back up against the wall
with
no margin of error.
