+ Mohanty brothers win doubles title
Arnav and Arsav Mohanty, who play tennis for Lakewood Ranch High School, captured the Florida Open Nationals Boys 16 doubles title July 12, in Fort Myers.

The twins defeated David Crisovan and Nikita Kardivar 8-4 in the final. Last year, the Mohantys reached the quarterfinals of the Florida Open, but another national tournament kept the two from advancing.

In addition to the Florida Open, the Mohantys have also won the Florida Designated Doubles title and the Florida State Closed Sectional Doubles title. Arnav and Arsav are currently ranked 13th and 14th, respectively, in the Florida USTA rankings.
