Despite several rain delays and under threatening skies the entire time, the Grand Street Campus Tennis Tournament completed five first round matches Tuesday. In the marquee match-up John Zarcone defeated Anna Markova 6-1, 6-3. Zarcone's power game was too much for Markova as both his serve and forehand were rock solid. Zarcone will now advance to the Quarterfinals where he will meet EBT Junior and GSC Tournament rookie Dennis DeJesus who stunned Bill McAndrews 6-0, 7-5.

In other matches, three-time defending champion Max Estenger easily defeated Rebeca Morel in a double bagel while Segundo Paredes missed out on his double bagel against Lenny Sharpe 6-0, 6-1. Both Lenny and Rebeca are class acts and superb athletes and with another year of tennis, they could be factors in next year's tourney.

#2 seed Yusaf Khan did not play due to an illness to Mark Kollerer but Kollerer will definitely be ready to play Wednesday. Meanwhile, Adam Benson has to wait until Wednesday to play Yarixa Cordero who also had to skip Tuesday due to injury. McFarlane and Chavez will also play their first round match tomorrow at 4PM. Eagon will watch and play the winner of the Khan/Kollerer match tomorrow.
