Dart Match #1.....One We Let Get Away

Last night was the first match for the Fall 2007 season of the Portland Area Dart Association. I am on a team for the first time, excited to be a part of the team that won the C division last year. We are in the B division this year. We actually have a very strong team with 3 great dart players. I am likely the wink link on the team but I will get better as the season goes on. I haven't played that long and only got serious about a month ago and try to practice most evenings.

We lost, I believe the final score was 17-12. We were up 8-3 at the beginning but hit a wall. The entire team started to play horribly and included two of our best players being swept in singles cricket. Wayne, our team captain, got swept, he lost only once all last year in singles cricket. I went 2-4 on the night. Wayne and I swept our first round of doubles. I got swept in singles cricket but the other teams best player. Then Eric and I got swept in doubles even though we were well ahead in both matches. Was one of those nights. The team we lost to won the B division a year ago so we were going against a great team.

We play every Thursday night. If you care to keep up, the PADA has a great web site. We are in the B division and our team is the Mooninites.
