A group of elementary school students brought the Mayor Dinkins Cup back to the Bronx this weekend.
Jeff Lawrence has been the tennis coach at P.S. 100X for over a decade. He says the students on his current team are something special.
Thanks to the New York Junior Tennis & Learning after school program, students had access to practice tennis every day and compete. This past weekend they competed in the Mayor Dinkins Cup—where they came out on top.
