Recap
The Newport Beach Breakers' second-year women's tandem of Marie-Eve Pelletier and Julie Ditty won the team's lone set Wednesday in women's doubles but the hosts fell to the Springfield Lasers 23-18 in a rematch of last year's World TeamTennis Pro League presented by GEICO Western Conference finalists at The Tennis Club Newport Beach.
The Breakers (5-8), playing for the fifth time in six nights and the 11th time in 13 nights, lost to Springfield (9-4) for the second time in three days and could not prevent Springfield from clinching a share of their second consecutive Western Conference regular season title. The Lasers and Breakers finished first and second, respectively in the conference in 2009 and the Lasers advanced to the WTT Championship with a supertiebreaker. The Breakers lost tiebreaking sets in mixed doubles and men's singles while squandering a combined five set points in those two sets. Pelletier and Ditty beat Carly Gullickson and Chanelle Scheepers 5-3 in women's doubles.
The Breakers wrap up the 2010 WTT season at The Tennis Club Newport Beach at 7:15 p.m. Thursday against John McEnroe and the Eastern Conference-leading New York Sportimes. Very limited tickets for the Breakers' cracking grand finale, featuring the always-entertaining McEnroe, and team information can be obtained online at www.NewportBeachBreakers.com or by calling 714-352-6301.
