CELEBRATING 40 YEARS OF EXCELLENT SALES 0 SERVICE , ..... •4;v. vW-• • t4SW„ Maccabi gold as Jaffe's doubles part- ner in 1997. A third-year varsity per- former, he played No. 3 doubles in 1997, then played No. 2 along with then-freshman Berman last season. The pair finished 22-1 and reached the state semi-final. They became the No. I team this year, posting a 25-0 record, including victories in the WLAA and regional events. "They're not as physically domi- nant as a lot of people's No. 1 team," explained Jones, "but they're really smart players — very, very tal- ented. They see the ball well. They move together well as a team. They have great chemistry with one another, both on and off court. At No. 3 doubles, Wool teamed with Andrew Golaszewski for most of the season. The pair earned WLAA and regional titles. "They've been a real pleasant sur- prise, as consistent as they've been all year," said Jones. "They seem to feed off of one another, and they just play good solid tennis. They seem to enjoy playing together and I think they've improved a lot as the year has gone on. Brad Jaffe's brother, Steve, and Mark Frankel's brother, Rob, have frequently teamed up at No. 4 dou- bles to form the Raiders' "little brother team. The young duo played well this year and won the WLAA tournament. Neither the regional or state tournaments include a No. 4 doubles match. However, due to a teammate's injury, Steve Jaffe moved up to No. 2 doubles at the regional, and won. "Steve may be our most improved player," Jones said. "He has really stepped in and just earned himself a spot. Those kids have won a lot of big matches. They've won both the tour- naments they've been in (prior to the WLAA event). They have just played really good tennis." Mike Levy has filled in at several spots this season. "He's a left-hander, who did work on his game an awful lot in the off-season and it's really showing," said Jones. "He's made a real nice contribution." All that remains for this team is the state tournament. Confidence is no longer a problem. The Raiders are shooting for No. 1. "It would be a great way to end my senior year, Brad Jaffe said. "I don't think any team in our school has been close to being No. 1 in the stare for a real long rime. It would be a huge accomplish- ment for our team."
