Well this has been one of the most interesting and rewarding fall seasons in my 13 years as head coach of the program, and we are only half way through it! We returned our starting singles line up so I knew we would be very competitive in that area, but graduating Kerri and Lyndsey opened up our #3 doubles team. Finding a partner for Paige was going to be my main area of concern during the early weeks before our first match at Oswego. Loosing Ingrid for the fall and possibly spring season was a big blow to the team, she had such a successful season the year before, setting a school record and going 22-2 in singles play, tough to follow that! I made a decision to go with Alli and quickly starting to get them as much competitive match practice as possible before we started the season. They quickly gelled together and soon began to get accustomed to each other’s game. Our first match was away at Oswego, which was rained out on the Saturday and moved to the following Tuesday. This delay gave me more time to work with Paige and Alli.

Our first 4 matches of the fall season had us competing against Conference rivals Oswego, Plattsburgh, Oneonta and Cortland. Two convincing 9-0 wins against Oswego and Plattsburgh prepared the team for tough matches with Oneonta and Cortland. Although we beat Oneonta

Its a bugs life! Saw this photo op on the way to our match with Cortland on Rte 17.

7-2 and Cortland 8-1 both of these matches where strongly contested, the score line doesn’t reflect how tight the matches really where, and it took a lot out of the team, both mentally and physically. Our match against Western Connecticut gave us an opportunity to rest some players in preparation for the upcoming match with Geneseo and we beat West Conn 9-0. The match against Geneseo saw the top 2 unbeaten teams in the conference going head to head in a much anticipated match. Geneseo had returned much the same team as last year so we knew they would be very strong and we would have to be at the top of our game to win. In what turned out to be a 4 hour marathon match Geneseo won 6-3. Steph and Lindsey had won at #1 doubles and we trailed 2-1 going into the 6 singles matches, with the result of the match coming down to the last 3 single matches out on court at #2, #4 and #6 matches. Both teams were playing at the top of their games and the standard of tennis was extremely high. I was very proud of the 100% of effort we showed in this match, although we came up short in the end. Both myself a Jim Chen, coach of Geneseo said that it was a great testament to our conference that we had two extremely strong teams representing the very best in tennis for the SUNYAC Conference and we both agreed that this had been an excellent and well contested match.

The following weekend we competed at the ITA National Individual Qualifying Championships at William Smith College. This yearly event has the very best players in Div III tennis in the North East competing in doubles and singles for the right to represent our region when the national regions get together in Georgia. Steph, Lindsey and Montana where selected to compete in the singles championships while Steph/Lindsey and Montana/Kayla where selected for the doubles draw. This tournament gives us the opportunity to play some very good opposition against teams that we don’t play throughout the regular season. I was very pleased by the way we performed against strong opposition, and we gave a great account of ourselves and our program, notably with Montana and Kayla making it to the quarter finals of the doubles.

The last two dual matches of the season saw us run out 9-0 winners against RPI and lose 8-1 to nationally ranked Vassar. I feel that playing a very strong Vassar team before the conference championships helps us prepare for a tough and exhausting championship weekend to decide the conference championships.

SUNYAC Conference Champions

Going into the championships we knew that we had locked up seeds in 1 doubles, 3 and 4 singles and that we would be seeded two at 2 & 3 doubles, 2, 5 & 6 singles with Geneseo taking the remaining one and two seeds. All eyes were on Geneseo who had run the table with every conference team throughout the season winning 9-0 in all their matches except only beating us 6-3, so they were the clear favorites to retain their conference championships. The tournament could not have started any better for us, knocking out Geneseo’s #1 doubles team in the 1^st round and Geneseo losing in the 1^st round in the 3

singles flight. We proceeded over Friday night and Saturday to win some highly contested and closely fought matches and by finals day on Sunday New Paltz were in 8 of the 9 finals, our only lose was from Steph who was beaten in an excellent match by the #1 seed from Geneseo in the semi finals. We knew going into the final matches that our fate was in our own hands and that we had to play Geneseo in 6 of the 8 finals being played. Our first championship victory was recorded by Lindsey Garyn 6-1, 6-1 winning the #3 championship flight against Oneonta’s Carly Smith. Then our first lose Alli was beaten in the final by Sarah Shields of Geneseo which was then followed by a major setback with Montana, scrambling for a wide ground stroke rolled her ankle. At first we thought that she might have fractured her ankle but thankfully it was just a bad ankle sprain. Nevertheless she was unable to carrying on in the defense of her championship and had to withdraw injured in her match against Lucy Mehrabyan from Geneseo. Things started to go Geneseo’s way as Paige lost the first set 5-7 to Katie Talbot, Geneseo and Kayla had let a one set advantage against Katie Gayvert, Geneseo slip and her match was now evenly matched a one set apiece.

Paige started to make a great recovery from her first set loss and fought back to tie the match one set all with a second set 6-3 win. The conference championships was hanging in the balance with matches so close it was impossible to call who would be the outright team champion. Paige started to forge ahead using all her previous high school championship experience and eventually won her championship final by winning the second set 6-2. A remarkable performance from her considering she only played doubles in high school! All eyes and attention was now focused on Kayla’s tough match which was so generic viagra online evenly match that the 3^rd and deciding set went down to a tie breaker for championships. This one match I think defined what are team was all about this fall strong resolve and the never say die attitude of putting everything we had into every match. The standard of tennis from both players was extremely high, probably the match of the tournament, and both players knew that the championship could be decided on the outcome of this match. Kayla played some remarkable tie breaker points and ran our 7-3 winner in the tie breaker to win her first conference singles championships.

As the team, who had been nervously watching Kayla’s match went out on court to congratulate Kayla, Lindsey and Paige on winning their singles championships and console the injured Montana and Alli, who had put up a great display against the best #5 in the conference news was coming across from the courts on the other side of the complex that the #1 seed in the championship Monica Vieth, Geneseo had lost her final to Lorraine Jelinek, Cortland. This was probably the upset of the tournament as Monica had never lost a conference match in 2 years and already had beaten every number one throughout the fall dual match season.

We were told that we had won the conference championship, although w still had the doubles finals to play, that there was not enough points for Geneseo to accrue to be able to catch us. Hysterical scenes of celebration broke out from our team, a remarkable team performance by each and every one of them. We could now go into the double finals knowing that we had accomplished our goal of winning the conference championships. Unfortunately Kayla and Montana had to withdraw from their final due to Montana’s injury, but she was comforted with the fact that we had one the conference, and Paige and Alli lost their final to Geneseo, but I’m sure their minds where more on the fact that we had already won the championship. The final match of the day saw the number one doubles seeds of Steph and Lindsey, both seniors, take on a very strong doubles team from Oneonta and buy cialis online I applaud both players for going out on court and giving everything they had to win this match. They both knew as seniors that this was going to be there last conference championship final, a thought that I’m sure spurred them on to their 6-4, 6-4 victory and being crown #1 doubles team in the conference.

I know this victory was really special for both players, Lindsey had

completed the double, winning at #3 singles and #1 doubles and for Steph a great way to sign off on her four years of varsity play. Steph as a freshman in 2007, won the #3 doubles championships and we were crown conference champions that year and now again to finish her college career as the #1 doubles champion and captain of the conference team champions was a very special moment for her.

In my four previous conference championship wins this win was very special to me. Our previous 3 wins we were probably pre-tournament favorites to win but this time we sat behind Geneseo as the second seed going into the championship. We lead from the very first match on Friday and never looked back until the final match on Sunday. I can’t expressed how proud I am of the team and the way they performed and carried themselves over the championship weekend and to complete the clean sweep for New Paltz Tennis Steph was voted Conference MVP and I was given the honor of being awarded Coach of the Year, my fourth award as coach of our program. I would like to thank all the parents who attended the championships, like me you probably don’t have any finger nails left and more grey hairs than when you entered the tennis building on Friday!

2010 SUNYAC Conference Champions, NCAA Championships here we come!

NEW PALTZ — As SUNY New Paltz women’s tennis team preps for play in the State University of New York Athletic Conference championship tournament this weekend, one Hawks player knows that she has already prevailed in the biggest challenge of her life.

Paige Munroe, one of only two freshmen on the team this season, is a five-year cancer survivor who overcame the disease and is living life to the fullest as a college student. At age 13, Munroe was diagnosed with a stage 2 bulky Hodgkin’s lymphoma in her abdomen. She had been suffering symptoms like night sweats, tightening in her neck, a ping-pong sized bulge in the neck and a feeling of extreme heaviness on her chest. Neither she nor her family could believe that she had cancer. “Basically my life was normal one minute and the next minute it was turned upside down,” Munroe said. “I went into it with a positive attitude and I knew I was going to have the strength and support of my family and friends to get through it.”

Fortunately, living in the shadow of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor with its C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital meant that Munroe would be subjected to top-notch cancer care. “The doctors, nurses, everybody had the protocol for how to handle my cancer down

pat,” she said. “I had six months of chemotherapy and some radiation treatments and really the side effects were the worst part. “Even worse was that I couldn’t play tennis at all because I had an IV in my arm and pretty much no stamina at all.”

Munroe began playing tennis at eight years old, and as a middle-school student, she had designs on making the high school team before the diagnosis. She lost her hair and had good days and bad days, but only missed a few weeks of school and never let herself get down. That determination is what lifted her to fight the battle of her life and get back into playing shape. “I pushed and pushed and pushed,” Munroe said. “I was worried that I might never get a chance to play in high school, but I wouldn’t let go. I was going to play and work my way through the lineup.” Munroe didn’t make the varsity team as a freshman, but sophomore year was different and playing at No. 4 doubles, she and her teammate went 35-1 and won a state championship. She did the same in her junior year and again as a senior — three consecutive state titles. “Tennis was there to relieve my stress and to get me to focus on something else,” she said.

So when thoughts of attending college came about, Munroe began

researching schools that offered her intended major, jewelry and metal smithing. SUNY New Paltz jumped to the top of the list. “My parents are both from New York, my mother from Rochester and my father from Albany,” she said. “It’s 11 hours away from home, but I knew pretty early on that I’d go to New Paltz and I knew that they had a good tennis program.” No one was more surprised about Munroe coming to New Paltz than Hawks coach Rob Bruley. Bruley never had to recruit Munroe and found out she planned to play on the team by chance. “I had some of the other coaches I know calling me to say I was going to be getting a great player and I had no idea what they were talking about,” Bruley said. “Tennis magazine had done a four-page article about her and in it she said she was going to school at SUNY New Paltz and she was going to play tennis.”

Bruley saw the potential immediately and Munroe’s attitude fit perfectly with his current roster of successful players. “She gets better with every match and she loves to learn and hit with the bigger players,” Bruley said. “She’s very determined and has a great work ethic. She’s such a thinker and strategist on the court that sometimes I forget she’s only been here about eight or nine weeks.” Munroe agreed that the transition from high school to college has been smoother than expected. With only one regular season match left, she has chalked up a record of 6-1 in doubles play and 5-1 in singles at New Paltz. A conference title would be the icing on the cake. “I think I’ve been able to fit in well,” she said. “Alli (Esposito) and I are playing really well together at doubles and I’ve been lucky to get a chance to play buy viagra online singles.”

Munroe still goes for annual exams and had a scare last year when doctors thought the cancer had returned. “It’s always in the back of my mind that it could come back, but I try not to worry,” she said. “I always tell myself that I can beat it again.” Munroe has been involved with the Relay for Life and is in a test group at the University of Michigan to help researchers learn more about beating her kind of cancer. With the biggest challenge of her collegiate sports career just days away, she offered this suggestion to other teen athletes battling cancer. “It doesn’t have to be the end of the world,” she said. “It’s another experience in life and research has come so far to helping people win the fight. I would never trade having had cancer….it’s made me a better person.”

Our tennis program would like to say a big thank you to Mike and Joanne DiPaulo, Kayla’s parents, who had the team over for dinner twice in the season during our visits to Cortland and during the SUNYAC Championship weekend. We enjoyed their great hospitality and the food is always spectacular. Looking at the photo opposite looks like Kayla’s younger brother Matt enjoys being around the team! Bet there some stories he puts together when he’s back at school on a Monday morning after having Kayla’s team round for dinner! I would also like to take the time to thank all the parents who followed us home and away, especially at the championship weekend, I know you had a great time and were all very proud at the

way your daughter’s played during the semester.

Our annual Labor Day visit to the US Open was made even more special this year when the team was invited by the USTA to a very special VIP tour of Flushing Meadow and Ashe Stadium. Back in the fall of 2009 the USTA was on campus shooting a new “Rules” DVD using our student athletes from the tennis program. This training DVD was used to train Umpires and Officials working at the 2010 US Open. As a thank you to our program Head Umpire and local resident Rich Kaufman arranged for the tour. Some of the highlights of the tour included visiting the player’s lounge and locker room areas, a tour of the media center and operations center and what was for me the highlight of

Kayla and Alli hangout at the Open

the tour going underneath Ashe Stadium and watching Sharipova vs Wozniacki play at ground level. Difficult to describe the view but if you ever watch tennis on Ashe Stadium you will see two rectangular slots either sides of the line judges in the back court, about knee high, well that is where we were standing to watch the match!

After touring the main stadium Rich took us to the USTA control room where many of the umpire and officials were hanging out. To my amazement many of our players where recognized, from the training video, by the USTA umpires who had watched the training DVD and where given a round of applause for such a great job on the

DVD! A great experience was generic viagra had by all and fine way to cap off another highly successful visit to the US Open.

We would like to take the opportunity to welcome onto our team our freshmen class of Paige Munroe and Sharyce Willand. Paige is from Ann Arbor, MI and attended Pioneer High School where she played #1 doubles on her team. Paige is a 3 time Michigan State Doubles Champion and we look forward to seeing her both on the doubles and singles court for the Hawks this coming Fall. Sharyce attended Sparta High School, NJ where she played #1 singles on the team and will be competing for a spot on our singles line up for the coming fall season. Interesting fact about both players

MVP 2009/2010 Ingrid Maryansky class of 2012

Our MVP for tennis for 2009/2010 goes to one of our unsung heroes Sophomore Ingrid Maryansky. Week in and week out Ingrid quietly goes on the court and takes care of tennis business.

 During the Fall and Spring seasons she put together an

amazing record of 25-2 in all tournament and dual match play at number 5 singles, smashing the program’s winning singles record. Great job this year and I hope you carry on where you left off for the upcoming fall season.
