Glencoe match

Victory was ours over the past 2 days as we defeated Glencoe by a final score of 8-0. It was great to get a win against a team we lost to, to open the season. The guys played well and we won our first 4 matches yesterday before the rain hit. 6 players and their coach from Glencoe came down today to finish the match, and Casey, Nathan, Cody, Marshall, Jim and Reza hung tough to win our remaining 4 matches to give us the 8-0 shutout win. A great effort by all to give us a great win:

Game Ball - Casey Baker (great 3 set comeback win)

The win brings our season record to 10-3, 8-3 in Pacific Conference play. Thanks to all of the parents, siblings, and families who showed up over the past 2 days for our matches. A special thanks to Bahram and Sandi Refaei for providing the delicious meal for the guys for this match. It was absolutely delicious food!

Well, let's hope the rain holds off for us over the next few days. We are scheduled to be at home tomorrow against Tigard at 4pm. The mixed doubles bbq has been postponed until after our district tournament. Lastly, we have our Hit-A-Thon Fundraiser scheduled for this Saturday at 10am at Cowls.

Thanks for the support!

-Coach Wes
