Cooper at #2 lost much of his timing and rhythm (hard for a drummer to do) while losing his match 6-1, 6-1. In his varsity debut, Matt at #3 had the match of the day with a terrific come from behind 3rd set tie break win 6-1, 3-6, 7-6(7-5) - amazing effort!  Captain Brooks at #4 endured huge momentum shifts to overcome his opponent in 3 sets 6-7, 6-3, 6-0. Cole at #5 played well when it counted most winning 6-4, 7-5 and Michael at #6 showed guts and perseverance in a 9-7 pro set win. Final Millbrook -5    Suffield -2$0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0
