BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – After competing for almost a week at the USTA Birmingham Futures event, twins Hunter and Yates Johnson saw their run come to an end with a second round loss in the doubles main draw on Wednesday the Highland Park Tennis Center.
Â
The pair came up short against the second seeded team of Sekou Bangoura and Evan King in the quarterfinals, 6-2, 6-0.
Â
"The guys had a good run which they can learn from," head coach Mark Jeffrey said. "It's all about who plays the big points the best. I think the twins can learn how to play the big points if they practice that way. That will have them ready next time they have the opportunity.
Â
"The guys had six no-ad games and couldn't pull one out, but it is all a learning experience. As long as they learn and not make the same mistakes again, then it was a successful trip for sure."
Â
Louisiana closes out the fall season this weekend as the team will send a group to the Pensacola Futures event.
