President’s Cups go down to the wire

In some of the closest President’s Cup play in recent memory, Region III snagged both the men’s and women’s PC crowns for the second time in three years in a prelude to the National Championships, played entirely at Fox Meadow’s nine-court facility.

The women took advantage of perfect weather to cruise through a smooth all-day event the Thursday before the Nationals. Region III eked out a one-point triumph over Region I.

The men, on the other hand, had batten-down-the-hatches weather on the following day during the afternoon that tested the mettle of both participants and administrators. Brushing aside sleet and drizzle and smoky courts, Region III managed to post a two-point win, 40-38, over Region I.
