Tournament Director Chip Leveroni writes: "The APTA Men's PTI 25+ Nationals was greeted by a beautiful Indian Summer day on Cape Ann. The competition was fierce as a tightly PTI'ed field saw many three-setters, tie-breaks and very lengthy matches, including two of four top seeds losing their first matches. In the end, the top team was clearly identified: Situate Racquet Club competitors Dave Lockwood and Austin Lyne reigned supreme in a 6-3, 6-4 championship and gold medal win over Charles Leveroni (Cape Ann) and Nick Vance (Needham ) who earned the silver medal.
We'd like o recognize and thank our Tournament Sponsors: Xenon (Noah Seidenberg & Sam Byram helped with balls & hats), Conecuh Brands (Clyde May’s Whiskeys, Prospero Tequilas, Van Gogh Vodkas, and McConnell’s Irish Whisky) and local (Lynn, MA) beer sponsor Bent Water Brewing Company and local (Gloucester) restaurant sponsor Oak to Ember (Chef-Owner Neal & Larry Maver) who manned a wildly successful grilled lobster roll station (perhaps the best ever treat at an APTA National event.)
Thanks also to: Essex County Club for use of their courts and frequent leaf blowing in between sets, Assistant Tournament Directors Amy Leveroni (chili-maker extraordinaire) and Cal Leveroni (electronic scoring and court assignment guru) as well as Cape Ann Platform Tennis Club’s board and membership for hosting this APTA National event as well as great appreciation for all the support CAPT received from the APTA Grants + Loans program to help make this new four-court facility a reality."
