We had a rough start with O'Gorman, taking a loss, but Flight #1 Doubles pulled off a big win against Entwistle and Petrasko!  Excellent Win!! 

Later on, Sioux Falls Roosevelt showed up and we got a great start with two wins in doubles and in singles we tied with SFR to take a 5-4 win!  Awesome tennis today---with a few distractions----but you should all feel good about how you played today!
