The final tournament of the Island Country Club 2012 Tennis season was contested last weekend. The Member/ Member Mixed Doubles Championship featured 10 teams playing in 2 divisions.
A preliminary round robin event placed the competitors in a playoff for the Championship of either the A Combined 7.5 level or the B Combined 7.0 level.
The “A” group finished with Brock Wilson and Rene Lentz at #1 with 15 games and at #2 were Ray and Louise Jean with 14 games.
In the playoff between those top two teams Ray and Louise Jean survived 3 match points and a 2- 5 deficit to squeak out a win in a tiebreaker 7 points to 5 for the 2012 “A” Championship.
The “B” group finished with Top scoring Julie Maly and Rene Champagne – 19 games, and the #2 finishers John and Marilyn Wrucke who had 16 games qualifying to meet in the championship playoff set. Maly and Champagne edged out the Wruckes 6-4 for the “B” Championship even though Rene Champagne injured himself earlier in the event.
