Now that full season is in full swing, we would like to announce our 2005 Most Improved Players, John Scanlon & Debbie Karst. This year’s polling was closer than ever, especially on the women’s side, in which Sandra Starke was a very close, and two others in the running.
Our winner approved this pic
Debbie’s two fisted forehand is not the first to have received this award, which shows that we pros can be flexible. Debbies thirst for improvement, unbridled passion and courage nosed her into the winners circle. Debbie also attributes some of her success to pros Collin Crawford & Billy Mendler.
John did not approve this pic John started two years ago a rank beginner. Besides his marked improvement, his never say die attitude and flair for the dramatic tipped the scales in his favor. That and Molly taking the oath on stand that she was not taking responsibility for his backhand. Molly smartly turned that task over to pro Billy Mendler, who is molding
John in his own image. John gives all the credit to his rcqt.
Both players received a plaque, a free 1/2 hour lesson and have their named engraved on our new and improved Most Improved Player Award Placque located in the lobby. Congratulations Deb & John!
