Sleepy Hollow Swim and Tennis Club in Orinda hosted its first USTA Junior Open tournament in a decade Sept. 9-10, attracting 117 players, ages 7 to 18, from as far away as Capitola and Healdsburg.

Tournament director Jim Coyne, Sleepy Hollow's director of tennis, said the club's goal was to host one of the best tournaments in Northern California. "We wanted high-quality tennis and a lot of fun competition for the juniors. Our members pitched in to provide court monitors who insured fair play and quick changes between matches. The kids enjoyed snacks and everyone could see real time results on display. We were thrilled to host the event."

Local winners:

Jack Satterfield of Lafayette defeated San Francisco's Este Liu to win one of two 16-player brackets in 12U Boys Singles. David Iglesias of Fremont won the other bracket.

Liam Sullivan of Orinda and Aniketh Poruri of Pleasanton won 14U Boys Doubles.

Micah Elias of Orinda finished second in 16U Boys Singles, losing to Alexander Gujarathi of Novato in the finals.

Elena Sullivan and partner Soleil Skjorshammer, both of Orinda, finished second in 12U Girls Doubles.
