The Racquet Club of Lake Bluff has won the NC Men’s 4.5 league finals two times in a row. Last year they were able to squeak out a win with an extra set. This year they came away with a 4-2 win over Libertyville. Three of the 6 matches went to 3 sets. And all but one match was fairly close, which means that on another day there could have been a reversal of fortunes and Libertyville might have come away the winner. On court 1, LIB’s Gian Remigio/Alex Donkor sweated it out against RCLB’s Enoch Leung/Peter Morawiecki winning 4-6, 6-3, 7-5. On court 2, RCLB’s Nick Andres/Mike Raymond had a nail biter against LIB’s Dan Kiernan/David Currie winning 7-5, 7-6. On court 3, RCLB’s Peter Krizman/Steve Paulson took out LIB’s Matt Deans/Kip Olson 6-2, 6-0. On court 4, LIB’s Sydney Mella/David Sitko started out slow against RCLB’s Nejd Alsikafi/John Pucin but ended up winning 1-6, 6-4, 6-2. On court 5, RCLB’s Scott Holdebrecht/Dennis Dobrin won against LIB’s Jon Stauffer/Scott Cornehles 6-3, 7-5 and on court 6, RCLB’s Johannes Tauscher/Jon Laven played a tight 1st set against LIB’s Arvind Sreedharan/Alex George before winning 4-6, 6-1, 6-2.
