Summer Soccer

Julia is on the Surf GA team, returning about 1/2 the same players from LFC. They had a solid summer, winning the tournament at Starfire but not doing all that well at Surf Cup in San Diego. She's ready for the high school season!

Summer Tennis

Joanna had a very successful summer tennis season. At 10.0 mixed sectionals, the team underperformed but Joanna and Mike had 1 nice win and 2 near wins against incredible teams. It was great to finally play well in mixed. Eugene was also really fun. At WSO, Joanna won the singles and doubles in the 50s. The competition was pretty strong, especially in singles. Except for service nerves, she played great. The next week was 18+ sectionals in scorching hot Portland. We played 5 matches with only 5 players and finished 2-3. I finished 4-1 with just one loss 7-6 7-6 against a youngster in a really high quality match. So fun to play well! And such a fun group of gals.

Somerset Rec Club Summer '25

Alex and Mom ran the tennis program at SRC while Julia was a life guard, swim instructor, and swam on the team. She only made one meet (getting a PR in breast stroke) but she did all the practices to stay in great shape for soccer. She also made a ton of money on private lessons. What a special club!
