At the moment was the semi last day in Plantation, Florida with 55s and 65s.
Our workforce, the SoCal 65s, completed second, going 5/0 over the East. It was windy after we began and windy once I completed, which was restricted to 3 singles. I beat Carol Levine…a lot of lengthy and arduous factors however I gained 61 61. Tina Karwasky gained 60 62 (and went up 5/0 in second) at #2 in opposition to Sally Zasloff and Una Davis beat Lisa Jett 60 61.
We began at 8:30 and the doubles began at midday. Colleen Ferrell and Betsy Kuhle gained in topsy-turvy vogue (iphone autocorrected “topsy” to “tipsy”..do what you’ll), 63 5-7 (after main 5-2), 6- 0….by no means doubtful, however Zasloff and Carrie Rabuse within the East have been strong…a lot of lobs and large arms and angles. A enjoyable watch. Kandy Chain and Karen Haas struggled at #2 doubles, profitable 0, 2 in opposition to Deborah Larkin/Elaine Heekin…Karen is quick and Kandy is in the best spot.
Within the finals we play a troublesome South workforce (10 states vs 1/2 state)…they usually play a troublesome SoCal workforce.
The SoCal 55s workforce had a troublesome sport in opposition to Mid-Atlantic. Kathy Settles was quick at #1 singles vs Andrea Rice (63 62), though the rating was tight. Kathy Archibald had heartbreak at #2, falling 75 in third (to Delphine Owen) and Kim Kinberg misplaced to a really powerful Kirsten Elim (I watched numerous that..Elim is quick and athletic). Elim/Julie Osborne gained the Mid Atlantic with a 75 61 victory over Kinberg/Archibald. Earlier Jen Beindorf/Settles had tied the match at 2/2 vs Rice/Leslie Butterworth.
SoCal will play NorCal in an intrastate rivalry tomorrow…NorCal narrowly misplaced to Texas 3/2 and has a troublesome workforce as nicely.
I met Chris Ramsower Pearlstein who’s feeling significantly better (coronary heart pounding), and Mary Mottola…(torn hamstring will not be going wherever anytime quickly), Carol Wooden and plenty of different gamers.
