Steamboat Springs — The 2009 Steamboat NTRP Tennis Tournament wrapped up Sunday after enjoying its largest field in five years.
The tournament saw 228 players battle through 115 matches before its champions were decided Sunday afternoon at the Tennis Center at Steamboat Springs.
"Successfully hosting 228 players and another 200 family members and supporters is only possible with our great staff all pulling together," tournament director Jim Swiggart said. "We put on a record 115 matches on Friday alone, got a little backed up Saturday with the weather and had a beautiful Sunday. For this date in August, participation was a record for the center."
The tournament included 20 locals, several of whom made deep runs.
Steamboat Springs players battled it out for the women's 3.5 singles title. Darby Dale-Burger beat Janne Siegel, 6-1, 7-5.
Hayden tennis player Louis Nijsten, meanwhile, couldn't come from behind to win the top men's division, the Men's 5.0 singles.
Nijsten lost the first set, 6-2, but rallied to take the second, 7-5. He lost the match after falling in the third set, 6-4.
The weekend's tournament attracted athletes from across Colorado and 14 different states.
