Great Effort in Losing Cause

Westminster squared off against a tough Avon squad Dec. 8. Although many of the games were close, the Martlets could only manage three victories. Playing at the No. 1 spot for the first time this season, Will Mell '21 lost the first two games but then rallied back to tie up the match. At that point, his opponent, who was feeling under the weather for most of the match, could no longer continue and had to forfeit. Three of the matches went the full five games. Johnny Van Leuven '22 played a tough and gritty match, losing a heartbreaker 13-15 in the fifth and decisive game. Playing at the exhibition level, Shane Wahlberg ’19 staved off elimination by winning the fourth game 12-10 and then eked out an 11-9 victory in the final frame. In the match of the day, Jeremy Hopsicker '22 and his opponent traded 12-10 games to start things off. Hopsicker then found himself down 2-1, but, rebounded back to win the next two and close out the match. The other Westminster victory came from Luca de Sanctis '22, who outlasted his opponent in the third game, winning 14-12, and then carried that momentum into the next game to close out the match.
