“My serve and forehand were my strengths this week,” said Secord of his play in Mobile. “My best weapon was my forehand, and I had a positive attitude throughout the tournament.”
The doubles gold ball went to the ninth-seeded duo of Nau and Ilias Bouzoubaa (San Diego, California), who beat the second-seeded tandem of Ryan Cozad (Alpharetta, Georgia) and Jordan Lee (Orlando, Florida) 6-3, 6-2 in the championship tilt.
