Post-match breakdown

What we did well
  • Closed the door

    Steven took the anchor 3-1 — clutch in the closer's seat.

  • Won the heart-rate test

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

What to clean up
  • Slow out of the gate

    Dropped the lead-off 0-3 — playing from behind all night is harder than it needs to be.

  • 2 sweeps conceded

    Robert and Aaron 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.

Key moments

Next up9-14 loss, but closed the door is something to build on. Fix one thing, not five.
