R.J. Reilly, Inc. to the rescue

Just a couple of weeks before the Men’s and Women ‘s National Championships, and despite altering schedules and expanding play to Friday night for the first time in years, it was realized that one more court would be needed. That’s when Jim Reilly of R.J. Reilly stepped into help.

His company had put up the extra “stadium” courts at the host Shadow Lake Club, where the main matches were to be played, but it was apparent one more was needed. “Jim really hit a home run for us this time,” said co-chair Fritz Odenbach. “He not only came through with his usual timeliness and quality on the two courts we originally contracted for, but he went out of his way to get us that one additional court that made all the difference in our eventual schedule. To be honest, he and his organization deserve one of those APTA medals for being a winner here at Rochester, because that’s exactly what he is.”
