Cal Lutheran, just minutes ago, went on the road and beat Pomona-Pitzer 5-4 in an upset that I never saw coming. Credit to d3tennisguy for getting this one right on the money. The Kingsmen were a point away from being swept in doubles, but battled back to win 4 lines in singles and win a…
It’s a light weekend in D3 tennis this weekend. Thank goodness because covering Indoors was rough, and I didn’t even do that thorough of a job. Things really heat up next week, as the various ranked teams start their Spring Break trips, but before we get to that, we have to get through this weekend.…
Northeast D3tennis- Timmy Berg (Bates) d3tennisguy- Timmy Berg (Bates) Not much going on in the Northeast region this week, but Timmy Berg’s play was fantastic. He went 3-3 on their West coast swing, including an impressive win over Claremont #1, Alex Lane. If Berg becomes one of the best players in the NESCAC, Bates has…
D3tennisguy did a great job of summarizing the Indoors and all the great action that went on last weekend so there’s really no need for me to do it again. Instead, I’m going to look at where D3 stands as a whole after Indoors and discuss potential scenarios for some teams. A lot has happened…
National Indoors concluded today with a dominant victory by Emory over Cruz. By the time I woke up, the match was already over, and it really wasn’t as close as the 7-2 score kind of indicates. The Eagles cruised through doubles. Though all of the matches were relatively close, it doesn’t seem like they were…
The box score is in the sidebar… As you can see, this match really wasn’t all that close. Depauw’s Pool C hopes are now on life support, and I think their only way into the tournament is to upset Kenyon in their conference championship. Given the Lords’ play this weekend, that’s probably not about to…
I’m ready to go to bed. Cruz stunned everyone by beating Wash U. I think we can officially set aside the doomsday predictions for Slug tennis for at least two more years. Coach Parmelly did a great job pulling his guys together after a disappointing upset. The only danger for them heading into the final…
Kalamazoo def. Wisconsin-Whitewater 8-1 I’m not trying to diminish Kalamazoo’s win, but this was a classic let down match. Whitewater probably wasn’t used to having something to defend, and that’s exactly what they had to do against Zoo. Maybe they got nervous, or maybe they got cocky, thinking they would be able to beat Kalamazoo…
12:00 noon: Check the scores from Indoors and Trinity has already beaten Chicago. That was anticlimactic. After such a brilliant fight yesterday, the Maroons laid an egg today. Maybe they can only get excited to play Wash U. Looking at their results from the past three years, they have played exactly like a team…
