SpartanTennis Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 QUOTE(shims4 @ Apr 6 2007 - 02:23 PM) 826431405[/snapback]Webb's top 4 spots are always the same. Parks, Hatcher, and Crist don't lose to 5 and 6, maybe 4 once a year. To put in in other words I watched Hatcher beat Mackebee (playing 5 at the time) left handed. shims, i dont know what you're talking about. I watched both mackabee and haydek beat crist earlier this season in practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just becausde they occasionally win once in a while doesn't mean they hold a candle. Think of it this way... if you had only 3 players to pick from our team, who would you choose... Parks, Taylor, and Tadd for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webb4 Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 SpartanTennis, Tadd beat Mackabee LEFT-HANDED last year. Haydek is a much more solid choice at 5 than mackabee will ever be, AND he lost to the 3 girls player who will go unnamed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baylorgal225 Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 wow, i'm glad i'm not on ur team! yall are so mean to each other! why don't you like mackabee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shims4 Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 Walling is stuck at 4 b/c he deserves to be there, simple as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennisplaya Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 yes i agree, with u shims4. Walling has shown that he can hang with the top 3, with his solid strokes and competitive attitude. Haydek and Mackebee have shown improvement, but not up to that level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webb4 Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 Walling plays 4 because he beats the 5 and 6. Mackabee split sets with crist, he didn't actually beat him in practice. Haydek beat him 4,1. And.... walling, haydek, and mackabee have not gotten close to beating parks or hatcher so to say that the webb 4-6 is beating and splitting sets with the 1-3 is a tad off.

MaroonNation77 Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 From someone not on the Webb team I will say that parks, tadd, and taylor are certainly on an upper tier compared to walling, haydek, and mackabee. Another thing, In regards to the 4-6 beating/splitting sets with the 1-3, I know that sometimes those 1-3 don't try their hardest in practice. This is obviously not good, but realistically it happens. Now, I'm not saying that its impossible for any of the 4-6 to split sets or even beat the 1-3 occasionally, but its not very likely if everyone is trying their hardest. Mackabee may think otherwise, but the line-up speaks for itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackabee may think otherwise, but the line-up speaks for itself. Our lineup is different, I think. Wishing is pretty solid at the one spot. Playing someone close in practice is different, though. The inferior player has nothing to lose and tends to play better against someone that is better than them. Our 2, 3, and 4 players are all around the same level, though. All can beat each other on a given day. I'm not surprised that Mackabee split, I'm sure he was hitting out on the ball and playing with no pressure. Most people do well under those types of situations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harris' hooligans Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 Guys...just play tiddly winks and settle the lineup that way. Much easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shims4 Posted April 8, 2007 Report Share Posted April 8, 2007 Let's quit arguing about the Webb lineup. The players are in their current positions for a reason. The only spots that are realistically up for grabs are 5 and 6. The topic is about the best DII teams. Baylor and Webb will come out of the east, MBA out of the middle, and MUS out of the west. Those are the only teams with realistic title hopes. However, so long as Baylor doesn't fall asleep at state, they will win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
