Post-match breakdown

What we did well
  • Won the heart-rate test

    Robert closed out a hill-hill 2-1. Mental game showed up.

What to clean up
  • Slow out of the gate

    Dropped the lead-off 2-3 — playing from behind all night is harder than it needs to be.

  • Gave up a mini-sweep

    Patrick 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 2-3. One ball away — sharpen the close.

  • Got caught looking down

    Patrick (SL7) dropped to a SL4. Handicap was on our side — that's a win we leave on the table.

Key moments

Next up9-13 loss, but won the heart-rate test is something to build on. Fix one thing, not five.
