Afternoon Follies

After a 5 hour respite TennisTitan was back at the Yonkers Tennis Center for another round of entertaining tennis. This afternoon the Titan paired with Rich 'El Presidente" Prezioso in two plus sets of satisfying tennis against 'Big Al' Dio Dati and John 'Irish ' Gallagher. Titan/'Prez' cruised to a (6-2) victory in the opener and managed to hold on to win the second set (7-5) by withstanding a late rally that had erased a 5-2 lead. Titan/'Prez' led the final set 3-1 when play was halted due to time constraints. Titan wisely used this opportunity to practice his placement serves, lobs and half volleys from the baseline. TennisTitan was careful not to over extend himself physically thus avoiding the risk of cramping later this evening. TT enjoyed watching his opponents attempt to break down 'Prez' game by forcing their rallies to his side. Prez responded to that challenge effectively in the first set and throughout the first half of set two before losing his stroke.
