"This was a great result for the Louisiana team," Jeffrey said. "I really enjoyed playing with and catching up with fellow players that I hadn't seen in a long time. All the guys really got behind each other, so I am really glad that I was able to have this experience with the guys. Special thanks goes out to (team captain) Drew Meyers who helped put this all together."
The weekend was comprised of more than 300 players from nine states in the Southern Section in team competition for men and women in the 35, 45, 55, 65, and 75 age categories with a team match format of two singles and one doubles.
