Post-match breakdown

What we did well
  • Closed the door

    Robert took the anchor 2-1 — clutch in the closer's seat.

  • Sweep on the board

    Anand blanked their opponent 3-0 — full leaderboard point earned.

  • 2 upset wins

    Robert and Peter both beat higher-SL opponents. Handicap chart didn't see it coming.

  • 2-for-2 on the hill

    Robert and Peter both closed out hill-hill races. Cool under pressure.

What to clean up
  • Slow out of the gate

    Dropped the lead-off 1-2 — playing from behind all night is harder than it needs to be.

  • Conceded a sweep

    Pete and Aaron got blanked — those are the matches that flip a tight night. Bench depth / pre-match feel matters.

  • Lost the heart-rate test

    Aaron dropped a hill-hill 1-2. One ball away — sharpen the close.

  • Got caught looking down

    Aaron (SL3) dropped to a SL2. Handicap was on our side — that's a win we leave on the table.
