Adam Rosenwach is our November Junior Player of the Month. Adam has greatly improved, and he attributes his recent success to his decision to play in tournaments. Adam has been venturing to Syracuse to compete in ETA Level 11 tournaments this fall. Adams biggest weapon is his forehand, which when on, is explosive and deadly. Adam is working hard, like so many of our juniors.

Adam is 15, and attends Vestal High School. He has been playing tennis since he was 4. Inside look at Adam:
Favorite Movie: Office Space
Favorite music group: Cold Play
Favorite Touring Pro: Andy Roddick
Favorite Actress: not quite there yet
Favorite Shot: Any forehand
Favorite local club: BTC
Goals/Dream: To play Division 1 tennis
Quote “My game has improved recently, but it still has a long way to go”.

Congratulations Adam.

The Girl’s High School State Qualfier was held this past October 22 & 23 right here at BTC. As usual, there was some very good tennis, and spectators were treated to the best of the Southern Tier. Many of our BTC juniors competed and fared well. The top 3 finishers in both singles and doubles advanced to the States held at East Side Tennis Club in Syracuse.

runner up Carly Smith, BCHS junior
Lucy Mehrabyan of Ithaca won the singles title, defeating BTC veteran Carly Smith of BCHS in 3 sets. Lucy was a surprise winner, and is only in 7th grade. I am sure we will see more of Lucy in the future. Vanessa Rumpel (SCC) & edged out Jen Kucko, (CF) for 3rd place. Jen is an up and coming familiar face at BTC.

.

Doubles runner ups Brittney Williams & Alex Moore, advanced to the states.
Doubles winners were Kate Doyle & Taryn Lindquist (Elmira Notre Dame) who defeated Brittney Williams and Alex Moore,(Chenango Valley) two more BTC proteges. 3rd place went to the BCHS pair of Brett Lane (BTC frequenter) & Danielle Kashou. Special thanks to Carole Bramante, Section 1V co-ordinator for her efforts in running the event. Her expertise and easy going manner always help make the event a good one.
