Crazy parking Sat morning!
American Heart Walk Saturday morning. If you play at 10/10:30 a.m. range parking will be a challenge!
Take the 1st parking spot you see even if it means parking at the church on Pisgah Church. Thanks, Ben

SEEDING
This tournament's seeding will be done in accordance with USTA Regulations. They will be compiled and examined by the Head Referee, Tournament Director, and members of the Tournament Committee.
Factors to consider in seeding (taken from "Friend at Court"):
Seedings merely represent the Committee's subjective ratings of the various players' chances of winning the tournament. These ratings may not be based on whim, caprice, or hunches, but instead shall be justified by a reasonable amount of factual evidence, including, but not limited to, rankings, current records, types of surface, and particularly head to head encounters. Two outstanding doubles players playing together for the first time should be considered for a place on the seeded list.
