Our team had a good practice session this afternoon and we're all ready to play. As predicted, we play Mid Atlantic tomorrow morning at 8. Through today the weather has been beautiful, in the 80's. We'll have cooler, windier conditions tomorrow. I've known all the girls on my team for a few years now, and have been fortunate enough to have been teammates of a couple of them on past teams. Tennis is usually such an individual sport, but playing in a team atmosphere really puts a different spin ( pardon the pun!) on the whole thing. One new player to our team this year is Joanne Russell. You may recognize her name as the Joanne Russell who played on the tour in the 70's and is the Wimbledon Doubles Champion in 1977! She is extremely nice, and very excited to be a part of our team. She will be playing #1 singles for us tomorrow, with me at #2 and Susan Boyer at #3. We'll decide our doubles line up after the singles matches finish. Hoping for a strong showing in the singles!
