San Juan Capistrano, CA — Opening before Labor Day is new to us, but, we tried anyway. Some great spots, Aerin and Kylie played well in Kylies inagural match. Scarlett played a tough match 2-6 w/ HB's #1 who sports a 9 UTR! Naomi's JSerra career opened up with a win @ #3 singles...and MVP's Ellie Gregor-Orr with Sophia Staff took 2 of the 2 they played. The Lions fought hard to a 6-6 tie at the end of round 2, when coach liberally subbed 9 completely new palyers for round 3... "This was a decision I obviously would not make in any other situation, this should have been labeled as a scrimmage, but, HB wouldn't agree to that, so this loss is basically on me. The coaching staff is still trying to finalize teams and needed to see everyone play, which they did. We will bounce back" says KOach Kirk... "I was very happy with what I saw in first 2 rounds!" GO Lions!
