ETTERBEEK SWEEPS SCHOFIELD COMPASS DRAW
Army chaplain Jonathan Etterbeek pulled off a sweep of all three Schofield
Compass Draw tournaments by capturing singles, doubles and mixed doubles
on March 15. Etterbeek, a former West Point tennis team player and All
Army captain, breezed through the men's doubles by teaming with Scott
Christiansen to vanquish Ryan Moses and Sosefu Veatama in the finals,
6-2, 6-2. The chaplain also had to work a bit, but managed to get by pesky
Colonel James Lin in the singles final 6-3, 6-2.
The most competitive and the most interesting final of the day occurred
in mixed doubles where Etterbeek teamed with daughter Tatiana Etterbeek
to play Carol Dunn and Lional Barona. Barona and Dunn took the first set
7-5 by playing smart tactical tennis. However, the Etterbeeks assumed
a unorthodox style in the last two sets as Jonathan started running all
over the court to hit as many balls as possible. Tatiana complemented
her father by keeping whatever balls in play were hit to her. The Etterbeeks
took the second set 6-4 and then came from behind in the third set to
knock off Dunn and Barona 7-5 for the championship bowl.
