Entry 1

April 4, 2005

So far the season has been successful. We have won our last 10 matches and are getting better every day. From the No. 1 spot to the 12 spot, we are all grinding, working hard both on and off the court, and staying in exemplary shape.

We won the indoor nationals again this year, defeating Santa Cruz in the finals 5-2. Mark Odgers lost just seven games in three matches throughout the tournament. Josh Rubens won 6-0, 6-0 in the finals to clinch, again.

We went to Hawaii for spring break and won all three of our matches, two of which were against tough NCAA Division II schools.

The next weekend we won two more matches. Against DePauw, Alex Jacobs staged a valiant comeback, after being down 5-3 in the third, 30-Love, and cramping, to win the decisive set 7-5.

Thursday we play Shorter, and then we are off to California for two big matches against Santa Cruz and University of San Francisco. We will update you on our matches as soon as we can.
