Summer Session

This session, with one week to go, has been a complete turnaround from the previous two. All seven players on the team are shooting around the 0.500 mark as far as winning. Still, we have a chance to make the session playoffs and qualify for the City Tournament next year.

One problem we are experiencing, besides a slight case of burnout, is the lack of players at the Skill Level extremes. Right now we have four S/L 4 players and three S/L 5 players. It looks like we'll have three open slots for next session, so we are looking for a good S/L 6 or 7 and a real good S/L 3.

One of the other teams in our Tuesday division has the players we are looking for, and that team might be splitting after this session. I've talked to the players, maybe we'll have some good news during the playoffs coming up in a few weeks.

Tuesday we took 3 out of 5 matches from one of the teams that qualified for Las Vegas this year, that was the high point of this session. The low point came when we got skunked 5-0 early in the session; the fact that the team which accomplished that feat has been in first place all season eases the pain - somewhat.

I'll try to post again next week after I get the final standings and the word on whether or not we qualified for the session playoffs!
