James also took his opportunities at the net, giving me nothing to work with. I then had to really change my game and started hitting more consistently, luckily taking the 1st set 7-5. Second set I just had to keep this up and start&finish strong…luck was on my side. Very well played James.. good luck with the rest of the matches! "  -- Eren
