In a vicious inter-squad scrimmage, the valiant Blue team fell to the scandalous White team by a score of 4-1.
#1 singles, Luke Hostennis defeated Coach, though Coach's obviously ailing back and lack of true playing experience in the recent past prevented him from hitting his booming 140 mph (maybe a little exaggeration) serve. Luke outlasted the Coach long into the third set, where Coach's groundstrokes failed him, much to the delight of the White team.
#2 singles, Magic Racket Man defeated The Fly in a close second set. With hard attacking strokes, the Magic Racket Man sent The Fly from corner to corner, but there was no way to prevent eventual defeat. Though The Fly held the advantage in the second set, the Magic Racket Man battled his way to the straight set victory.
#3 singles, The Giraffe knocked his way to victory over the first of our No Names. The Giraffe was gracefully awkward as normal in pulling off one of the easiest wins of the day.
#1 doubles saw The Snakemaster and The Turtle square off against Angel and Monkey Mikey. In a heated match with furious groundstrokes, volleys, and overheads. Snakemaster and Turtle smashed their way to a two set win.
#2 doubles was where The Shark was lurking, taking down the Little Red One and Awestin. Though the Little Red One tried to distract the competition with skimpy apparel and bulging biceps, The Shark was on the prowl for victory and pounded his forehands past the disappointed losers.
Thanks for all who participating in the inaugural Blue-White Scrimmage. I hope to see this tradition continue in the future years.

Thanks for perpetuating the Girafe Man name. I have a good name to replace it, but it probably wouldn't catch on. It's Kashmar, which is Russian for nightmare, because I lived in Russia and because Andrew's dad said I was a nightmare for my opponents after the Northridge match. Just throwing it out there. I guess I don't really care about being called Girafe Man but it is slightly annoying.
ReplyDeleteI like Kashmar, let's make it an official change!
