We want to thank coaches John Selvaggio and Christine Klouda and Section XI tennis chair Mark Mensch for organizing and running this event, Smithtown East High School for using their facilities, and the Suffolk Tennis Coaches Association for their support.
A final thank you to Coach Bob Davis, who founded this tournament 16 years ago and started the tradition of playing some fun tennis while raising money for a great cause.
