Swab The Decks

Swab the decks all you want, Shipmates, but you won't be able to wash the sweet stank of victory off you this week.

It was a rollercoaster ride, but we exported the Imports and racked up our first team W of the season. An unprecedented showing in singles 501 (4 W's) and cricket (4 W's) gave us a huge cushion. We had a chance to blow them out of the water, but they gave us a taste of our own medicine by coming on strong in doubles 501, taking the first 2 games.

In what was a microcosm of the whole night, Fred and Rich nearly "tossed the midget" in the final game of 501. But the commanding lead evaporated and it became a close contest, when the Imports got in with a Ton. But in the end, we managed to double out and secure the FOS victory for the night.

Props:
The Squad - For a big win.
Jeremy - For not showing up.
Darian - For apparently wishing for a miracle on her birthday.

Next week we play Jen Kowalski and Marissa of the unfortunately named "Ground Zero" at O'Hanlon's Bar on 349 East 14th Street (@ 1st Ave).
See you then.
