Andrew Marshall defeats Arindam Raja Majumder
6-0, 6-1

From Andrew:

This match on a sunny morning at Canyon middle school required a lot more exertion and wear and tear on the legs than the score suggests.

Raja ‘the human body breaker’ Majumder has the heaviest forehand in the league, and he was ripping for the corners as usual and making me put a lot of mileage on the tires.

I rode a defensive lockdown-D strategy for this match, but was coughing up too many short sitters and was wearing down toward the end.

Tough sun angle on one side forced me to resort to exclusively sidearm slice drop serves.  Raja had a handful of break points but I escaped all but one.
