The annual “Bo Terry” Tennis Tournament was held on August 28 & 29, 2010. This college scholarship benefit is sponsored by the men of Kappa Alpha Psi and Omega Psi Phi Fraternities. This year’s tournament was dedicated to the loss of several fraternity members. Brother James “B.B.” King, Jr. of Kappa Alpha Psi and Brother Robert “Bob” Turner of Omega Psi Phi passed away during the week of the tournament. Brother Alfred McCain, Sr. of Omega Psi Phi passed away the week before the tournament. Al “Skip” McCain is the past polemarch of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity. He is the son of Alfred McCain, Sr. These brothers worked hard in our community and made numerous contributions over the years. They will be greatly missed as they enter into their heavenly chapters.
The new men’s singles champion this year was Danny Cornelio. Jerome Hamm won second place in the singles competition. The men’s doubles champion team was Eddie Blair and Johnny Nash. They won a close 3 set match over second place Perry Coles and Pink Wimbish. Jacquelyn Jacobs and Pink Wimbish won the mixed doubles championship over last year’s champs Pam and Roger Hurt.
The tournament would also like to recognize additional donations from Eddie Blair, Johnny Nash and John “Snake” Harris. These extra donations were greatly appreciated as well as all tournament participation. All donations are tax deductible. We hope to see you next August.
