Handball 40:00 [3]
Singles with Steve again
Again, I had his number. There were a number of times when I was simply able to outrun him or his expectations (as he gave up even though I was going to make the play). He was half a step slow, so often set me up due to being slightly out of position when he struck the ball.
Game 1: Trailed 1-6, led 16-8, then we traded points the rest of the way with the lead always between 6 and 8. Won, 21-14.
Game 2: Steve was tired and I leapt out to a 20-3 lead before "hanging on" to win 21-11.
Game 3: Lead 10-2 and then we mostly traded, but for the first time ever, Steve seemed to give up. Won 21-13.
Afterwards, changing my shoes, I developed a bad burn in my quad just above the right knee. Iced it at home, but it hurts again this morning. We'll see if it takes well to exercise.
