Trying out doubles as a tandem, usual singles players Logan Borg and Shane Barrows finished 2-0 together.

They didn’t come in with a lot of confidence and after every game, they’re getting better and better and gaining confidence. They’re starting to understand the game more. I’m excited to see how they do the rest of the season.”
