Post-match breakdown
Fast start
Peter took the lead-off 2-1 and set the tone right out of the gate.
Punched up
Aaron (SL2) took down a SL3 — the kind of W that swings a night.
2-for-2 on the hill
Peter and Aaron both closed out hill-hill races. Cool under pressure.
Couldn't shut the door
Anchor went down 4-4 with the team match within reach. That's the one to win.
Lost the lead
Was up by 2 at the high-water mark. Bleeding a lead in the back half is fixable — usually pace or shot selection.
Gave up a mini-sweep
Steven got blanked — those are the matches that flip a tight night. Bench depth / pre-match feel matters.
Got caught looking down
Patrick (SL7) dropped to a SL6. Handicap was on our side — that's a win we leave on the table.
