2021 Mid-Atlantic Men's NRT Final Results (doc),  (pdf)

Tournament Director Nate Engler writes: “Platform tennis came back to the Mid-Atlantic Men’s NRT for 2021 after taking 2020 off! Twenty-two (22!) teams came to the DC area to compete in the Mid-Atlantic’s. Top seeds Scott Falatek and Vlatko Najdek made it to the finals, only dropping a total of six games. On the bottom half, the unseeded team of Trevor Spracklin and Alex Hume came through to the finals with a tough three-set win over the second seeds Ilya Levin and Ned Mandel.

In the final, Spracklin/Hume quickly took the first set 6-3. Falatek/Najdek found their groove in the second set, evening the score with a win of 7-5. In the third set, Spracklin/Hume got the break at 4-3 to go up 5-3. After some great shot-making, they were able to come away with the victory with a final score of 6-3, 5-7, 6-3. Congratulations to our champions. We look forward to having everyone back next year!”

The APTA would like to thank Tournament Director Nate Engler for running a great event, along with the team at host Congressional Country Club for putting together a great dinner and lunch. A big thank you to Joe Mesmer at Columbia Country Club for hosting the Consolations and to all the players for competing well.
