Their parents, returning from Toledo for the event on their 25th anniversary, come armed with envelopes of match instructions while Craig Burkhart, a University of Pennsylvania sophomore and Penn tennis player, mentors siblings from afar. Wendy breezed to a 60 60 win and Gary struggled, yet the family projects pride and continued involvement as the tournament continues with doubles added and rounds through Friday.
