Marblehead 5 Gloucester 0 – Comments and results from Marblehead coach Elisabeth Foukal

1.       Senior quad-captain Justin Faia beat Roger Tanaka 6-3, 6-4 in a tough match in which Justin was the better player in the key points.

2.       Sophomore Billy Ackerman stepped up to 2^nd singles to beat Chris Noyes 6-1, 6-1 with quality forehands and solid serving.

3.       Senior Mike Conlin in his singles debut beat Derek Hopkins 7-6 (8-6), 6-4. Mike played a solid match winning the big points when it mattered.

1^st doubles Senior quad captains Sam Orenstein and Garett Tully played quality doubles and pulled out the win in the third set super-tiebreaker. They beat Ty Parisi and Dan MacDowell 3-6, 6-4, 10-4. The super tie-breakers was played very well by MHS. With the second set win giving them momentum, they won the first 2 points of the tie-break and maintained the lead till the end.

2nd doubles: Sophomores Dan Litvak and Jack Quigley beat Joe Kibango and Anthony Parco 6-0, 6-0 with excellent serving and net play. Dan and Jack also used some new formations that we’ve been practicing to their advantage.

In first sub-varsity play, Adam Sherf and Tony Gluskin won 6-2; then Adam teamed up with Harry Dolin and won 5-0.

Excellent sportsmanship ruled the day and I think Gloucester will be the team to beat next year in the NEC.
