No pictures today, just a few words!
Another beautiful day here in Oberlin, Ohio! The staff here at Oberlin have done a fantastic job making all of us involved with the NCAA tournament feel welcome and comfortable. They made a point of taking care of even the smallest details and showing flexibility with the inevitable mid-tourney changes required.
Well done!
Today's play? Quarterfinals in singles & doubles, semi-finals in singles. A very high-level day of play especially in singles. If I were rating today's 10 matches 8 of 10 were very high level and very competitive. As one might expect as the tournament advances towards the final day, the playing level went up, and continued to reflect the observations I have made in previous posts. To re-iterate, in no particular order. GREAT defense, tenacious competitive skills, visible fitness prowess, and a general embracing of challenging, competitive play.
The results? At noon(Eastern) #3John Watts, of WashU will take on #5Chris Goodwin of Emory University. The doubles semis give us #1Middlebury against Trinity of TX, and #2UC-Santa Cruz against #4 California Lutheran.
I promise it will be good!
