Wow, played semi-final and final matches tonight at The Club, partnering up with Mike Cota. We beat Tom and Ivan in the semi's in one game to 15 (15-10) and met Tyrone and Fito in the finals in a three-game match to 15 with a tiebreaker to 11. The match went so long we finished a few minutes before the gym closed. We lost the first game 14-15, but came back in the second and won 15-10. We were down 4-8 in the tiebreaker, but somehow managed to score the next seven points and won the match 11-8. What a surprise and thrill, but it came at a cost. My right knee is throbbing right now. Mike Cota played phenomenally well. He has the ability to make incredible shots. I let him do his thing and took shot when I could. Fito's serves were hard to handle, but somehow I returned them and kept the number of mistakes to a minimum. What a match, one of the best I've had in years. This may be my swan song. I've really messed up my knee because of this match. Not good. Knees are important.
