In my very brief pro tennis career I was pummeled by Jimmy Connors, Eddie Dibbs and Harold Solomon among others in 1974 & 75. After realizing teaching was going to pay more than playing (losing) I hit with Arthur Ashe and Billie Jean King.
I went to high school with and played briefly my sophomore year with James "Duck" White who played nine years with the Vikings. It was at that time I realized I was a tennis player not a quarterback though I did continue trying until my freshman year in college. I now limp.
