I took a while to warm up in the first bout. The second bout I wasn't sufficiently attentive. I was in the lead all the way to 4 but let it slip away. I was too focused on scoring rather than setting up the point. The last three bouts I was much more methodical. I focused on controlling teh distance and making use of the piste. The majority of point were scored iin my end. I focused on drawing the Op closer for AIP, using the PIL to set up parry reposte or freeze them, stepping in if they startet too quickly and mixing in my own attacks to keep them  from settling.
