It wasn’t a televised event, but for those playing in USTA Adult League Championships this past weekend, it felt more like the US Open than a recreational league.
USTA Adult League Championships wrapped up in Middle States this weekend, as 60 teams battled in non-stop competitive action at three New Jersey sites. In the end, 12 teams earned a chance to represent Middle States at USTA League National Championships, which begin next month and run through late-October.
First- and second-place district teams at each level are listed below. Official champion and finalist team photos can be found here and also on the Middle States Facebook page.
