Winter Tennis Carnival Jan. 30th
IMG_5127[1]The Tennis Winter Carnival held on Jan. 30th was major fun for all attending. It took on a different format as KU and K-State faced off in their basketball rivalry and 1/2 who attended headed to the Pro Shop TV to see the outcome in over-time. Others stayed put and finished the ping-pong, putting, basketball, target tennis, poker games and tennis matches. Event winners: Kiersznowskis dominated the ping-pong, John Doane was 10 for 10 at the freethrow line. Brad Beets made 7 out of 10 twelve foot putts to take the gold. Beer Pong was dominated by the Brunkhardt and their guests. Puff ball was the hottest contested game with Rex Redlingschafer collecting the most wins and the gold. The Target tennis event was squeaked out by Janice Redlingschafer with 12 points, one ahead of Mick McHugh. The rest of the events were to close to call and medals will wait until next year.
Team Ireland; Leslie Dicker,Brad Beets, Cheryl, Nancy Watson, Julie Beets and Mick McHugh
Ireland took gold in the team competition during the Carnival. Nancy hit a sreaming crosscourt
winner to clinch the victory.
