This regional event is one of our regular stops and we have come to know the players, staff and area fairly well as a result. The SRDA upgraded their venue last year and again raised the total payouts for this years event. Pictured with Sandy is Sophia Liggett who has been decorating her flights this year for good luck. Sophia's art work was even seen and photographed by her amazing sponsor L-Style global recently in Las Vegas. Sandy played with Sofie's dad John Liggett, a teammate from the hometown league and couldn't quite get going losing in the first and second round both days. They teamed with another teammate Jeff Turner but again come up short early. She and youth partner Gage Alvarado took a Top 4 in Cricket on Saturday and she went on to win Cricket Doubles with Julie Scheppele and earned a hard fought victory over Julie in Ladies Singles Cricket. Sunday she found out that her injured knee is a partially torn ACL but with the help of the fine people on SCI-SPORT, she was professionally taped with KT Tape for the long day ahead. She again was Ladies Singles in 501 with an impressive performance and then teamed with Julie to win a tough 501 Doubles victory. It is their 7th straight Ladies Doubles win at this tournament and the singles titles give her 4 on the season and 56 in her career.
