Notes
Dear Parents & Players:
One of the seeded players withdrew from the tournament. This
forced me to reseed and change the draw. Please look at the new tab
I have loaded for match times on Saturday. Some match times have
stayed the same and others have changed. Please call 513-451-4233
if you have any questions regarding the change.
Sincerely,
