Tennis Woes Continue for Raybuck

Well, I lost again Thursday night under the lights on the red clay of the Buffalo Racquet Club. Not only did I lose a hard-fought 3-setter (6-4, 4-6, 6-4), but I slipped on set point at the end of the first point, losing the set (and thus probably the match), skinning my knee badly, and then getting a calf cramp. Players from the other court came over to assist....it was all very embarrassing. My opponent came over and asked "did I win the point?" Of course, he had won, but the ball had come near the line, and since I didn't get a chance to call it, he just had to ask!

My match record for the season? 0 and 8! Maybe I should stick to running!
