Mobile, AL
Alex Grubin and Andrey Boldarev won the ITA/NCAA II National Doubles Championship and will be ranked as the #1 doubles team in the NCAA II. This is the first National Doubles Championship for the Clipppers. Alex won the National Title in singles back in 2007.
Coaches Rockhill and Tarangioli traveled to Mobile with the players and a good time was had by all except for the below normal temps just reaching 60 degrees when it should have been in the 80's. Of course, I still had the AC on full blast thus doing away with all free radicals in the suite and forcing Coach Neil (or as it was written on the hotel reservation, Coach Greg), into his tent of 10 blankets on the floor for his night's rest. This does drown out the snoring a bit...thank God.
The fall season is now over and the guys will be getting ready for final exams and taking a nice break from the courts for the most part. As for me, I am looking forward to some additional free time and getting back into the gym.
Also, I am on the recruiting trail looking for one more player for next semester. With the right addition we should be able to make a solid run at the NCAA II Team Championship in May 2010. When I started at this I had three major goals in the athletic area: 1. To win the National Championship in singles 2. To win the National Championship in doubles and most importantly 3. To win the National Team Championship. So far 2 of 3 have been accomplished. Keep the faith everyone!
That's it...nuff said.
