APTA Boy’s Doubles- FMTC juniors make it to the finals but lose to the Baird brothers

No one from Fox Meadow had won the Boys’ Doubles yet, but in 1969 the Club’s Clay Auxford, son of Sally Childress Auxford, and partner Hi Lankenau of Chappaqua made it to the finals. They lost 6-3, 2-6, 6-1 to Chip and Steve Baird, brothers from Chevy Chase, Maryland, who won the Men’s National Championship in 1976. Steve Baird and partner Rich Maier dominated the game in the 1980s and early 1990s
