The Coaches meeting has been concluded and the biggest adjustment is that the Boys singles will now start at the same time (10:00) instead of afterwards.
Erika McKenzie will start on Court #4 and Ethan Richardson on Court #10. Both will be getting underway in a few minutes.
The courts are divided 1-3, 4-6 and 7-10.
Courts 7-10 have been declared unplayable and we will now be using courts 1-6 only.
Ethan’s opening match was one of the two delayed by the change of courts being used.
Erika’s match against the #2 seed from Abingdon just ended at 10:40 am. While there were some long volleys along the way, the match ended in straight sets.
10:50 – Ethan is warming up on Court 6 and will face the #6 seed from Cave Spring shortly.
11: 27 – Ethan is heading into his second set now, having dropped the opening one.
The definition of Doubles partners is sharing the same chair 💺.
11:45 – time to acknowledge the folks that made the trek up from Carroll County on a Monday morning. Besides the four athletes and two Coaches, we have three additional members of the Richardson family 👪. Dad, Kris ➕ Mom, Paula and Grandmother 👵 Linda. We might should count Martin McKenzie twice, once as Dad and once as Coach.
11:54 – Ethan Richardson has completed his Singles match and it concludes the opening round of Singles altogether. Both Cavaliers have finished their Singles careers.
The final score was 6-3, 6-1 in the Singles match for Richardson.
Both Carroll County doubles teams will be back on the courts shortly.
