the lines are still good

Follow the happenings of an animated college tennis coach and his teams in their pursuit of an NCAA National Tennis Championship. It is always the impressive trophy that is displayed for all to admire that gets the attention, but it is the journey to claiming that trophy, the relationships built, the people served and the memories created, that live forever...and what I hope you will find interesting...

Streaking...


Good day and sorry for the delay. A little neck strain has kept me away from the computer. However, I know you all have been eagerly awaiting a post keeping you abreast of the recent happenings.

Philadelphia University visited Bronxville 3/27 and were rudely sent home with an 8-1 defeat (click here for the box score). After sweeping the doubles easily, we let Andrey and Alex sit out the singles and thus challenged the balance of the lineup to step up and win at higher spots. This proved not to be a problem as most everyone won in easy fashion. Not sure my buddy and Philly's head coach Cha Goods appreciated that we sat Alex and Andrey but you gotta earn the right to play Mr. Grubin and Mr. Boldarev by fielding a competitive squad when you show up to play and witness the Clippers...

The day after we traveled to Brookdale Park in NJ to battle Bloomfield College, another CACC powerhouse. Fielding a squad of fully funded soccer players, the Bloomfield racquetmen were defeated 9-0 (click her for box score) in, what I believe to be a record time, 51 minutes from handshake to handshake. It was nice to have the rest of the weekend off I must say...

These big wins propelled Felix Missal to be named CACC Player of the Week and Andreas Lindell CACC Rookie of the Week. Congrats to both players.

In our third match in 5 days Post University came to Bronxville. Post, another CACC foe, was also sent home with a 9-0 loss (click here for results).

I gotta say however, we have been pleasantly greeted with nothing but the best sportsmanship from our new opponents in the CACC and look forward to a wonderful future and a rediculously long winning streak in the conference, as long as I have anything to do with Concordia Tennis.

Tomorrow 4/3 we will take on Chestnut Hill College, another CACC opponent at home with a 1:30pm start. I hope to see you there. As always, stop in and say hello to ol' coach Dano. Former Clipper netman Henning Rrrrrrruenz is in the area and will be in attendance. Perhaps even a steak dinner in the future...

Be well all and Happy Easter!
