Round 4 Match 2, Nov 4th, Saturday Recap

Bentleague IX Round 4 Match 2 Nov 4th, Saturday Recap Last match of Round 4 Thursday. Congrats to Samauria Schneider and Senor’ Sid for capturing 7.5 Combo. Did Seth and Shane even make it to the final? Inquiring minds want to know… 8:00 Net Prophets Lobbyist Line 1 Player 1 Russell Anderson Noah Marquez Player 2 Shane McCarthy Jeff Thompson Wow. Noah and JT9 win 2 and 3. Good sign heading into final round. 6-2,6-3 Lobbyist Line 2 Player 1 Ty Miller Chris Kobrock 6-2,6-1 Lobbyist Sacrifice by NP? Ty Highlife can rally but not sure he has fire power to hang with Killer K. Based on 2 and 1 score, Swami knows what he’s talking about. Singles Line 3 Player 1 Addison Melancon Mark Schneider Player 2 Jay Butcher Robby Economides 6-2,7-5 Net Prophets Word on the street is someone questioned game count during set number two. Lobbyist had a banker and a guy who can tell you the square root of a 23 digit number without a calculator. Who you think got it wrong? Hopefully rumor about someone quitting mid set tied 5-5 after the confrontation is not correct! Line 4 Player 1 Eddie Burdette Robert Groeneveld Player 2 Bill Spiess Mike Otillio 7-5,6-3 Net Prophets Tough ask of Lobbyist duo. Free Willy and Eddie and the Cruisers too consistent. Line 5 Player 1 George Strain Peter Jilkov Player 2 CJ Mehle Steve Toups 6-2,6-0 Lobbyist Boom. Peter Jil vying for MVP consideration after long weekend of tennis at Tops’l. Toups can compete and sweat with the best of them. CJ fighting for wins having a tough go in B IX. Same for Geritol George! Line 6 Player 1 Eric Daigle Garret Phillippi Player 2 Danny Butler Shawn Potter 2-6,6-3,1-0 Net Prophets Total Points 4 5 Tie Breaker heart breaker. P squared (Potter and Phillippi) lose a close one. Hope this one doesn’t come back to haunt Lobbyist. Good win for Daigle (underrated) and Butler. 9:30 Smash City Spin Doctors Line 1 Player 1 Nick Thompson Ed Dauterive Player 2 Mark Fair Brad Humphreys Say what? Dr. Death and The Principal take down the Ego and Tricky. Had to Read that one again. That duo just got humbled by Lil Nadal and KK. Just goes to show you on any given day…and Brad can beat any not named Tigah! 3-6,6-4,1-0 Spin Doctors Line 2 Player1 Blake Powers Vaughn Pizz 6-2,6-2 Smash City Spin Doctors through Vaughn at singles conceding 2 points. Only one match left for Ed to answer the bell. Squeaky Blake quietly racking up points. Singles Line 3 Player 1 Andrew McQuaid Michael Schwartz Player 2 Jeff St. Romain Hal Nei 6-3,6-4 Spin Doctors Hairy Hal dialing it in with Seargeant (MVP) Schwartz. No more Halitosis Hal after this win. Foresee these two pairing in some matches come round 5. Burrito McQuaid falters in first match since MVP award at Tops’l. Line 4 Player 1 Bentley Harvey Greg Gordon Player 2 Keith Krebs Joey Dunbar 6-1,6-3 Spin Doctors Old knees struggling for W’s. Too much fire power from Geeko Gordon and Big Calves Dunbar. Line 5 Player 1 Kevin Phayer Steve Jacobs Player 2 Paul Guidotti Tyler Harper 4-6,6-3,1-0 Spin Doctors Third set tie breaker! Tokin Tyler (aka Run Forest) gets first win of B IX. Close one on paper. Tanned one a little better than the squirrel? Line 6 Player 1 Seth Monaghan Mike Mesa Player 2 Chris Rabon Burt Dalton 6-1,2-6,1-0 Spin Doctors Mesa Dalton pairing better than Bonnie and Clyde, Butch and Sundance, Captain and Tenile? Valiant effort by the Round Mound of Rabon and the Alpha Ginger. A lot closer than Swami would have predicted. Total Points 2 7 Race for the trophy tightens. Will be interesting in final round. One more match before we get there though. See everyone Thursday. Overall: Spin Doctors Lobbyist Smash City Net Prophets Total Points 53 54 43 36
