Scott was a student of mine as well as a tennis manager.He would admit he was a pain in my butt on occasion.yet he was one of my most memorable and interesting students. I am terribly saddened by his passing. I admired his parents for their efforts to improve Scott’s high school experience.RIP Scott.
