It will be East Coast vs. West Coast in the singles finals of the USTA Boys 14 National Clay Court Championships at the Westgate Tennis Center in Dothan on Sunday beginning at 9 a.m.
No. 17 seed Jack Kennedy of Huntington, N.Y., knocked off No. 1 seed Jack Secord of Lake Forest, Ill., 6-4, 6-0 in one semifinal Saturday, while No. 6 seed Gus Grumet of Mill Valley, Calif., defeated No. 16 Sebastian Bielen of Glen Cove, N.Y., 6-4, 6-4 in the other.
“I know how he plays and I was definitely confident going into it,” Kennedy said. “He is very aggressive and goes for his shots. He’s very powerful and attacks, so I was just staying the course and weathering the storm and just staying consistent.”“I used that drop shot when I was younger a lot,” Kennedy said. “That was one of my biggest weapons. Also dictating with my forehand was a big part today … pushing them back and getting an aggressive ball, then attacking with that.
“I just kept the intensity up and staying positive throughout the match,” Kennedy said. “I feel like my positive energy helped me throughout the match. For Grumet in his win over Bielen in the other semifinal, holding serve with it tied 4-4 in the second set was a big moment in the match.
