Week Two of 2022 USTA League Nationals Recap

Week two of 2022 USTA League Nationals is in the books and we have six new National Champs.  See my round-robin recap to see how the semi-finalists got there.

The 18 & Over division continued with the 4.5 men and women playing in Arizona.

The 4.5 women was won by Mid-Atlantic with a 4-1 decision over Florida, which was a rematch of each team's first match where Mid-Atlantic won 3-2.  Southern and NorCal were the other semifinalists.

The 4.5 men was won by Texas winning 3-2 over Midwest.  NorCal and Mid-Atlantic had been dispatched in the semis.

The 40 & over got started this week with the 3.5 level in Arizona.

The 3.5 women was won by SoCal with a 2-2 "win" over NorCal.  The semis were won over Intermountain and Eastern, both 2-2 "wins" as well.  Yes, the 2-2 tie reared its ugly head a bunch this weekend.

The 3.5 men was won by Intermountain with a score of, wait for it, 2-2, over Texas.  They had beaten Florida and Southern in the semis.

The 40 & Over 4.0 women was won by NorCal who beat Midwest, wait for it, by the score of 2-2.  Southern and Intermountain were beaten in the semis by the score of, wait for it, 2-2 each.

The 4.0 men was won by Southern who took out Midwest by a 3-1 score.  Southern had beaten New England by a, wait for it, 2-2 score, and Midwest beat Hawaii 3-1.

That makes 12 matches played in the 40 & Over semis/finals and a full 2/3 of them have been 2-2 ties.

Congratulations to six more National Champs!
