What ties did we have for week 7 of 2023 USTA League Nationals?

The last weekend of Nationals is on-going and the round-robin has wrapped up.  Here is how things have played out in the matches, all being play in Orlando at the National Campus and all Mixed.

The 18 & Over 9.0 found three teams unblemished at 4-0, Mid-Atlantic, NorCal, and Southern, and a 3-way tie at 3-1 for the last spot.  Midwest was a court back at 7-5 but Florida and Missouri Valley were tied at 8-4 as well as tied on sets lost (10), so it went to games lost and Missouri Valley lost fewer, 91 vs 94, and took the spot.  The teams advancing were numbers 1, 3, 4, and 6 in the simulation, so not too bad!

The 18 & Over 7.0 also had three 4-0 teams and a 3-way tie at 3-1, the unblemished teams being SoCal, Southern, and Texas.  NorCal was the best 3-1 team with a 9-3 court record, two better than Caribbean at 7-5 and New England at 6-6.  The teams advancing were numbers 1, 2, 3, and 7 in the simulation, again not bad!

The 40 & Over 6.0 still has a few matches to complete as I write this, but it appears the semi-finalists are decided with a 4-0 Eastern, 3-1 Caribbean and Middle States a court ahead of 3-1 Southern (8-4 vs 7-5), and then it appears NorCal, presently 3-0, has a spot wrapped up as they can do no worse than 3-1 / 8-4 which would be the fourth team at that record.  SoCal could also get to 3-1 / 8-4 if they sweep their last match, but they've already lost more sets than the others.  Again, the simulation had the advancing teams 1, 2, 3, and 7!

Last, the 40 & Over 8.0 had a nice tidy four 4-0 teams, Florida, SoCal, Eastern, and Middle States.  The simulation had these teams 2, 3, 4, and 6!

Congratulations to the semi-finalists!
