Florida - Day 4 (Tuesday)

Had another morning to spend at the hotel; coaches and players alike have had no problem arising early for the breakfast spread. For the the coaches, seems to be the only time of day we get to eat. The three of us did sneak in a few pieces of German Dark Whole Wheat bread (from the Pepperidge Farm Thrift Store of course) between men's matches, which served as dinner. No complaints in that respect though; get to coach and are presented with opportunities to teach ALL DAY long!

Arrived at Lake Cane late morning where the women took on Methodist College, and the men Alfred University.
Women: Coe 4 Methodist 5
Men: Coe 7 Alfred 2

Trekked back the hotel for a few, before venturing out once again for the night match. The atmosphere was truly electric. Under the lights. Large fan base of support. High intensity, high energy doubles followed by strong and relentless singles play. Proud of the men for responding to the slight doubles deficit (down 1-2) professionally, and with pride in representing themselves, teammates, Kohawk Tennis and Coe College. Wrapped up play around 10 PM with a 5-4 victory over Ohio Northern.

Wednesday's plan of attack: Men's practice at Sylvan Lake from noon to 2. Women's match against Meredith College at 1:00 at Sanlando.
