Arizona Drive at MLP Kansas City: With ten matches played and only ten points to show for it, the Arizona Drive find themselves struggling in Major League Pickleball. Their average of 1 point per match places them in a tie for 9th place, and their upcoming weekend in Kansas City represents a critical opportunity to turn their season around.
Arizona Drive’s Struggle to Find Form
The Drive’s roster, featuring Andrei Daescu and Dylan Frazier on the men’s side and Lacy Schneemann and Kaitlyn Christian in women’s doubles, has yet to live up to expectations. Despite their considerable talent, Daescu and Frazier have managed just three wins out of ten matches in men’s doubles—a performance far below their potential. For the Drive to salvage their season, they must secure victories in all three of their upcoming matches.
On the women’s side, Schneemann and Christian face an uphill battle against three formidable opponents. Given the current form of the Drive, the odds of them securing a win in women’s doubles appear slim. The pressure on the team to perform is immense, and the chances of overcoming the tough competition in Kansas City are not promising.
The Kansas City Forecast
The Drive’s schedule in Kansas City pits them against the Ranchers, Hustlers, and the D.C. Pickleball Team. Based on the current form, the outlook is challenging. The prediction is as follows: a close loss to the Ranchers in a Dreambreaker, a hard-fought win against the Hustlers in another Dreambreaker, and a defeat to the D.C. Pickleball Team. This would result in just three points from three matches, maintaining their point-per-match average at 1.
As the Drive heads into this crucial weekend, the need for a strong performance is undeniable. With their playoff hopes hanging in the balance, they must find a way to rise to the occasion and start accumulating wins to boost their standings. The road ahead is tough, but it is also an opportunity for redemption.
