Real tennis v Oratory (Seniors) Away won 4/2

An extremely tight match with all but one of the 6 sets reaching at least the penultimate game. Lachie Iverson and Walter Rittson-Thomas won the first with a nail-biting 5/4, holding their nerve at the death. Kit Carlisle and Jack Chen recovered from 0-3 down to a pair of howitzers, but kept their nerve admirably. Lucas Magnay then (with Walter) just lost 4/5 before Jack and Lachie won another 5/4 and Kit (with Lucas) dished out the only mauling with a dominant 5/1. Lachie and Walter just failed to comeback from 0-4 down in the final set before relinquishing a 30-0 lead to lose 3/5. A splendid afternoon with everyone showing at least some of the very best tennis.
