9/22/17:
"14 play (1 new, 2 return) at C.G.!":
There was just one session of GTA Friday Night Tennis at The Cedar Grove Courts and multiple sources reported results from the outing: "Killer Kat" Kathy Sheldon, "The Olympian" Marie Salamon, "The S Bomber" Genalin Capan and "The Lumberjack" Ryan Pienciak.
Let's get the scores!
The Cedar Grove Results:
Laurie Boughton/Arlene Hyde over Kathy Sheldon/Michele Panzitta, 7-6 (7-5)! No Aces. It was the official GTA Return of Arlene Hyde and the official GTA Debut of Michele Panzitta.
Kathy Sheldon/Michele Panzitta over Laurie Boughton/Arlene Hyde, 6-3! No Aces.
The Kat's Meow: Just those two sets would have been a long match. It was very good competition and close. Glad to have these two ladies in the league.
Samara's Notes: I thank Kathy for the clarification on those two scores. I second her opinion on welcoming both ladies to our league. Arlene previously competed in some GTA action (though she was likely unaware of it at the time) when I included her in results from when I played at Marie Salamon's Indoor Group (at Fair Lawn Racquet Club) Season Ending Party last spring. I am glad Marie brought both of them to Cedar Grove and I welcome to them to our mailing list as well.
The first of those two One-Setters could very likely be a Nominee for One-Set Women's Doubles Match of The Year at season's end. And now we go to Marie for another result.
2 out of 3 Sets Mixed Doubles Match:
Tito Castolo/Arlene Hyde over Jose Gonzales/Marie Salamon, 6-4, 7-5, as both teams entered the Mixed Doubles Division as the New # 52 and # 53 Ranked Teams respectively! No Aces.
Samara's Notes: I thank Marie for her timely reporting of that result. And now we go to Gen for the score of another full Mixed Doubles Match.
2 out of 3 Sets Mixed Doubles Match:
Kris Srinivasan/Genalin Capan over Dennis Cabanatan/Minnie Cabanatan, 6-2, 6-3, as both teams entered the Mixed Doubles Division as the New # 54 and # 55 Ranked Teams respectively! It was the official GTA Return of Minnie Cabanatan. Kris: 3 Aces on Minnie; and Gen: 1 Ace on Minnie! They played this match from 8:56 to 9:52.
Gen's Notes: I was impressed with Minnie's level of play (especially her two-handed forehand) considering the fact that Minnie does not get to play all that much tennis. The match was a lot of fun.
Samara's Notes: I thank Gen for her very timely reporting. I'm also very happy to see that Minnie is back in action in the GTA. We now go to Ryan for the last two scores of the evening.
Arthur Fontanilla/Erdem Alpay over Ryan Pienciak/Laurie Boughton, 7-5! No Aces.
Ryan Pienciak vs. Arthur Fontanilla, tied at 5-5 (Incomplete, we stopped at 9:57 before the lights would go out at 10pm)! No Aces. I had been down 1-5, but came back to tie it up before we stopped.
Samara's Notes: I thank Ryan for sending in these results in a very timely manner.
Sincerely,
Frank Samara
