Any report on the event? I didn't hear about it in time; how was it advertised? I received no notification. I would have played and invited several other players who would have come.................

I believe the primary communication was by email to Rice Tennis Club members. If you live in Houston and play tennis, or if you just want to support the Rice tennis program, and you're not a member of the Rice Tennis Club, you should join!
It has the best hard courts in this part of Texas, and the locker rooms are quite nice as well. Plus, at about $75 per month, it's a steal compared to just about any other club. Here's a link to membership info:
