It’s the halfway mark of the Thursday Triples and Section 1 saw a number of moves on the ladder this week.
Moolap’s Two Phone Chol took top spot with a win over Drysdale’s NSA, and relegated them from first to third with the 6-0 score line.
Callum Davey, Lachy Edgar and Shaun Grigg showed their singles skills dropping only one game between them, but NSA gave them a good run in the doubles, with each set only seeing one service break the difference.
Highton’s Top Blokes also leap frogged NSA with a 4-2 win over the Wallabies.
The match started evenly with Peter Ficca and Matthew Wensley taking the doubles 6-4 for the Blokes, while Will Tohill put the Wallabies ahead winning his singles 6-2. Highton pulled ahead in the middle sets taking the doubles 6-3 and Wensley the singles 6-4.
The young Wallabies hit back in the third doubles taking it 6-3, but Peter Ficca won his third set for the night in the final singles 6-3 to give the home team the win and second place, two points behind Moolap, and dropping the Wallabies to fourth, behind NSA on percentage.
The final match of the night was Grovedale’s Reunited hosting H.E.A.T.
The home team started well with Dan Smith and Trent Carson teaming up in the doubles to win 6-4, while Dalton Sharp got through in a tie break in the singles. Smith and Sharp battled through in the second doubles to get over the line 6-4, while Lou Arzanovski got H.E.A.T on the board with a 6-3 win in his singles.
From there H.E.A.T took control with Arzanovski pairing with Zoran Roso to win the doubles 6-1 and Jo Horvat finishing the night with a 6-0 win in his singles.
The final result saw the teams tied on three sets, but the run away win at end put H.E.A.T ahead by nine games.
