Today was a good day for team Florida. The day started out much cooler and windier, as forecasted. We warmed up as a team around 7:15 this morning, then got started right on time at 8:00. I played the same girl I had played last year at Intersectionals in Austin, TX on hard courts. Last year, we had an incredibly tough three set match that I eked out. This year I'm in a much better place mentally and physically and I won handily 6-1, 6-1. I was very pleased with the way I played. JoAnne lost a tough match at #1, 6-4, 7-5. Her opponent is a very good player and played exceptional today. Susan won her match at #2, 6-0, 6-2. So we were 2-1 up going into doubles. We felt like we could sweep the doubles with no problem and we did. Susan and I won 6-1,6-1 at #2 and Mary and JoAnne won 2 and 4 at #1. Tomorrow we play Northern California. They too have a strong team, but I like our match ups all the way down the line up. We've all got a match under our belt and feel confident. The other semis is Southern vs Texas. That will be a battle as well.
