4.5 and 4.0 Turn the Corner For the Final Push to the Finish Line


4.5 Flight A - in a double round robin format, Brookhaven/Harllee has moved clear of the field sitting at 7-1.  Everyone else in this flight has at least four losses already.  McKinney/Rodriguez, Seay/Hall nad Gleneagles/Juhn are all tied in the four loss column.  McKinney still has to play Brookhaven, and Seay and Gleneagles have another match against each other.  Advantage to the winner of the Seay/Gleneagles match.

4.5 Flight B - continuing the trend in 4.5, Springpark/Aguilar has walked off with this flight as well sitting undefeated at 8-0.  They've had several 3-2 wins but they still keep winning.  They face second place Greenhill/Rossouw in the final match but already have this flight locked up.  Greenhill sits tied with Oak Creek/Martin at the three losses.  Oak Creek has the easier finish so they should edge Greenhill out for second.

4.5 Flight C - in a continuing good year for Bartlett, his Brookhaven team sits atop this flight at 7-1.  Oak Creek/Sangren and Springpark/Khaing are tied for second with three losses.  At first glance it looks like Brookhaven has this flight in hand since there are only two matches left.  Hold on a minute, those matches are against Oak Creek and Springpark.  This one is much more up in the air than it looks.  For Brookhaven, its two to make one.  One win down the stretch will seal the deal.  Oak Creek sits clear in second based on lines but they finish with Brookhaven and Las Colinas/Arnold, both of whom already beat Oak Creek. 

4.5 Flight D - back to the earlier theme, JCC/Reiman is undefeated and has a two match lead on second place Lakes/Way.  While JCC and Lakes still have to play, JCC need only beat last place Greenhill this weekend to lock up first before the final match.  Third place Lifetime/Arcaria still has a path to slip into second.  Lakes finishes with first place JCC and third place Lifetime, so two losses to close the season are not out of the question.  A Lifetime win over Lakes and SamGrand would then slide Lifetime into second.  Much will depend on how seriously JCC takes its final match against Lakes after they've already wrapped up the flight.  If JCC empties the bench, Lakes could catch a break.

 

4.0 Flight A - this flight looks like its neck and neck at first glance with three teams tied in the one loss column, but upon further inspection I'd say Oak Creek/Iyer has this flight locked up.  Garland/Kanchi has the schedule to slip into second but with the fall wild card they may choose not to.  Royal Oaks/Templeton and TBar/Snow match to close out the season could weigh heavily on the playoff race.

4.0 Flight B - Huffhines/Ratcliffe has this flight all but wrapped up with one match remaining and sitting as the only one loss team.  Canyon Creek/Patterson and High Point/Somabut sit tied for second with identical 6-2, 28-12 records but CC has the head to head tie breaker.  CC has a walkover final match so they should be hard to catch for second.

4.0 Flight C - this flight has our first 4.0 undefeated team with Garland/Russell sitting at 7-0 with only a straggler left.  Garland has been squeaking by with a lot of 3-2 wins so we'll have to see how that holds up.  Brookhaven/Bartlett and Greenhill/Ohl are tied in the one loss column but they finish the season playing each other so second place should be decided on the court this weekend.

4.0 Flight D - the final undefeated team in 4.0 is Eldorado/Browning.  They have slowly distanced themselves from the field, now sitting with a two match lead with only one left to play.  A full four teams sit tied in the two loss column so this flight is going to be a photo finish.  Lakes/Reifsnyder has a commanding line lead on the rest but they close against first place Eldorado so that could be the end for Lakes.  Oasis/Smith and LB Houston/Trentino still play each other so that's an elimination match.  And the last two loss team, Chandlers Landing/McLemore still has to play LBH.

  43. Looks like scores finally posted between Raja 8.0 team full of ringers and Alan team. Seems ALANS team continues their dominance. Davis gets revenge on a loss to Sam Hyunh last year by winning this time around and Kelly continues to amaze beating a damn good 8.0 (9.0) team. Hate him but he is the best at what he does. At what point does SP get noticed as the greatest mixed team of all time. Simply amazing. Still doing it 10 years and running. I was hoping for a rivalry but there is SP then there is everybody else. Good job guys!

  44. No they are not the best because idiot Kelley is not even playing mixed. I heard from numerous people who were there said he was playing back at all times and even on his partners side of the court. Anyone can do that but no one is that selfish to their partner and it is disrespectful. All his wins are tainted and will NEVER give him props until he plays a match like it's supposed to be played! Period!!!

  46. How stupid are you? You have a solid 4.5-5.0 man and a 3.5 woman, who should take most of the balls? It's a level playing field. Anyone can play the same way, if you can. Stop complaint and GET BETTER. Also, he's only 1 line. SP Still has to win 2 out of 3. Don't give ALL the credit to MK. It seems like the entire team is pretty good. SP just added Mike. They won 5 matches without him. Give the team some credit. I'm one of the " spares " on the team. We work our asses off. We practice 2 days a week. We take lessons from Alan on mixed where he tries to take our heads off with ground strokes so we aren't afraid of the ball. We all work on mixed and it shows. Screw all of you who thinks it's easy. Maybe you all should practice as hard as we do.

  47. When asked by a reporter about Alan's comment on practice, Mike Kelly commented further: "Now I know that I’m supposed to lead by example and all that but I’m not shoving that aside like it don’t mean anything. I know it’s important, I honestly do but we’re talking about practice. We’re talking about practice man. We’re talking about practice. We’re talking about practice. We’re not talking about the game. We’re talking about practice. When you come to the court and you see me play, you’ve seen me play right, you’ve seen me give everything I’ve got, but we’re talking about practice right now. … Hey I hear you, it’s funny to me too, hey it’s strange to me too but we’re talking about practice man, we’re not even talking about the game, when it actually matters, we’re talking about practice … How the hell can I make my teammates better by practiace?"

    1. So does ball hogging and turning what should be doubles into singles. IMO that should not be allowed.

      Delete
  69. don't care if they "ball hog" and play singles. It's the systematic tanking that Alan and the SP crowd endorse that should not be allowed.
    It's akin to an athlete who can't qualify for the regular olympics choosing to pretend to have a disability to dominate the special olympics.
    When a team at SP wins something at their actual level, let me know.

    1. What about high point and oak creek and greenhill. The men's and ladies teams at sp have 0.0 tankers. ALL the tankers in Men's are not playing at sp. Look at garlands 8.0 team. 75% off the guys can't win a match. And some of them won nationals a short time ago.
