Tennis Horde Set to Invade Portland

I'm not exactly sure how to describe our team anymore. In terms of tennis we are far too large to be a team: after all most tennis teams are made up of 6-8 players. Personally I don't like using military jargon such as troops or armies. So this week we are the Tennis Horde and we en route to Portland! This weekend the Horde will feature 14 players, 2 coaches playing 6 matches in two days. My plan for weekend is to split the team up into 2 groups to give players the players an opportunity to play in counting dual matches.

Because of project poor weather some of our match times and locations and have changed. The new schedule is:

Saturday
9am vs U of Portland
3pm vs Lewis Clark College (at LC bubble)
4pm vs George Fox (at Tualatin Parks and Rec)

Sunday
10am vs Willamette (at Courthouse)
11am vs Linfield (in Linfield fieldhouse)
3pm vs Pacific (at Tualatin Parks and Rec)

I'm not 100% positive on how I will break out the teams. But this is what I'm tentatively planning.
Saturday matches
UP - Phalkun, Steven, Matt, Justin, Robbie, Christoph, Nadeem
LC - Dan, Jake, David, Jasper, Thomas, Robert, Reid
George Fox - same group that played UP
Sundays matches (this is very tentative)
Willamette - Matt, Nadeem, Dan, Jake, Thomas, David, Reid
Linfield - Steven, Phalkun, Christoph, Robbie, Dan, Justin, Robert

If you are a fan or parent wondering where a particular player will be playing please give me an email in the evenings and I will try to respond.

Hope to see some Whitman shirts in the crowd this weekend!
