Leach, Frazier Join Dukes for Tonight’s Match
The Newport Beach Dukes will have two new players, including Rick Leach of Laguna Beach, when they return to the John Wayne Tennis Club to play the Sacramento Capitals in a TeamTennis match at 7 tonight.
The Dukes are coming off a 26-24 overtime victory Thursday at Wichita.
Leach, who won the 1990 Wimbledon doubles title with Jim Pugh, has won 20 doubles titles since he turned pro in 1987. Leach will play doubles with Tim Pawsat for the Dukes. The pair were teammates at USC.
Amy Frazier is scheduled to take over for Manon Bollegraf for the rest of the season.
Bollegraf is leaving the Dukes to begin Federation Cup play for her native Holland. Frazier played for the Dukes in their first season in 1990.
Sunday, the Dukes play the Los Angeles Strings, featuring Jimmy Connors, at the Forum.
