January 11th - Men's Division Recap
Our January Men's division featured five local teams, a couple Cincy area players and a few first timers to our events! Round robin play was tight and came down to the final match to determine our medal rounds.
- Doug Martin & Tate Hubbach
- Nick Pai & Ted Knauf
- Joe Shannon & Richard Crowdy
- Paul Morris & Doug Abell
- David Talbott & Zeke Friedeman
- Graham Stephenson & Tamm Omar
Seeding came down to the last match and head-to-head winners to fill out our medal rounds. Graham/Tamm (4-1) took the #1 seed over Joe/Richard, after their 11-3 victory in the first round. The last match of pool play determined who would advance as the #4 seed, as Nick/Ted took down Doug/Tate, 11-9, to secure the final spot. David/Zeke (3-2) took the #3 seed, after their win over Nick/Ted in round two of pool play.
Graham/Tamm won the #1 vs #4 seed semifinal match, 15-7 and David/Zeke took the #2 vs #3 match up, 15-11 to advance them both to the finals. David and Zeke were able to avenge their pool play loss and took the finals over Graham and Tamm, 11-9, 11-6.
We appreciate all the players who participated and those who came out to watch these players compete. Thanks again to the Pickleball Paddock (https://www.pickleballpaddock.com/) for welcoming our events to the nicest facility in Lexington and we are looking forward to February's event (Saturday Feb 15th, registration is live on our website).
