News Story:
Midd Vermont Mid-Level Tennis Tournaments
The Midd Vermont Mid-Level Tournaments at
Middlebury Indoor Tennis attracted 30 entries on
September 15-17. Most players were local, although
out-of-county players came from as far away as Danby and Milton.
The largest draw was in Mixed Doubles, in which eight teams
began competition on Friday with the quarter-finals.
In the finals on Sunday, Carrie Wulfman (Ripton) and Chris Murray (Middlebury)
narrowly overcame John Ballard (Middlebury) and Michele Butler (Bristol)
10 points to 7 in the match-ending tie break, after splitting
the first two sets, 2-6, 7-6.
The Men's Doubles final, also on Sunday, featured Frank McDonough (Milton)
and Jim Plante (Essex Jct) who defeated Maurice LaFramboise (Cornwall) and
Charles Peake (Orwell), 6-1, 6-1.
The deciding match in the Women's Doubles Round Robin event was
played on Saturday. Wulfman and Karen Didricksen (Bridport)
set back the spouses of the eventual men's doubles winners, Cassy McDonough and
Karen Plante, 6-3, 6-2.
The next tournaments at Middlebury Indoor Tennis
come in November with the fourth annual "Rolling Thunder" series.
On November 4 the "intermediates" meet in singles and doubles draws.
All finalists get free entry to the "advanced intermediate" draws
the following weekend. Finally, the "open" draw just before Thanksgiving
can be expected to attract some of the best players in the tri-county
area.
