Carrie, your support helped us win two of our three games last night. The wind may have played a part as well, since the team on the lake side had a clear advantage. Hard to hit the ball over the net, with 45 mph winds and sand coming at you. Plus, we had the LOML there to cheer us on. (Thanks, Karen). Brings our record to 2-4. Not bad, guys! Way to go!!!!!
