Well, it's Better than not playing at all!

TennisTitan again wisely split his time at the YTC with 'Gimpy Knees' Joe Cruz. Your Titan got to play with Rich 'Prez' Prezioso for the first set in defeating 'Big Al' Diodati and John "Irish" Gallagher handily (6-2). 'Prez' stills has the 'wheels' to run down most any ball hit his (or TT's) way. Today, he showed the capacity to keep the points going until the unforced error was commited by the opposition. TT kept his errors to a minimum but lacked the capacity to set up and drive the ball effectively. Set 2 had 'Gimpy Knees" (subbing for TT) partner with 'Irish' in a more competitive match against 'Prez'/'Big Al.' 'GK' showed fine form in leading he and 'Irish' to a hard fought (7-5) victory. Titan (subbing for 'Prez') faired even more poorly with 'Big Al' against 'GK'/'Irish' in an abbreviated third set (1-5) when we were ushered off the court by the next group. TT again played with ice packs under his knee wrap and did no further damage to his menisci.
