2019 USTA Girl’s 14 Nationals – ReCap

Posted on August 13, 2019 and filed under Uncategorized

Thank you for taking part in the 58th USTA Girls’ 14 National Championships in Rome, GA. It was an honor to have you as part of this memorable event.

It was a long 9 days from Check-in to the Finals, but with the able assistance of Allison Harris, we ALMOST had a dry event. (I guess 7 out of 8 days isn’t bad.)

I’m sorry for missing watermelon on Sunday, but it was restored on Monday.

Below are pictures of our award winners. We missed a one or two, but here they are ….
