Broward County Sweeps Adult 18 & Over 3.0/4.5 Sectional Championships

It was a great weekend for tennis as teams poured into the USTA National Campus for the Adult 18 & Over 3.0/4.5 Sectional Championships. There were two Women’s divisions and one Men’s that took the courts and the matches were great. 

Broward County dominated the competition as they came out victorious in all three of the divisions in play. With wins, they secured a trip to the National Championships later this fall.
