Kale Dal­la Cos­ta could not du­pli­cate his suc­cess on Sat­ur­day, win­ning the boys' sin­gles and dou­bles ti­tles as his unit and T&T's two oth­er teams suf­fered de­feats in their re­spec­tive match­es in the In­ter­na­tion­al Ten­nis Fed­er­a­tion (ITF) COTECC Un­der-12 team com­pe­ti­tions on Mon­day at the Na­tion­al Rac­quet Cen­tre in Tacarigua.

Play­ing on court six, Dal­la Cos­ta was out­played by his Mex­i­can op­po­nent in both the sin­gles and then in the dou­bles with part­ner Jay­den Mitchell. Isa­iah Box­ill al­so suf­fered a sim­i­lar fate in his sin­gles match.

Both Dal­la Cos­ta and Box­ill were beat­en by Luis Flo­res and Mauri­cio Schtul­man, re­spec­tive­ly, by the same mar­gin of de­feat, 0-6, 0-6 in the sin­gles phase of the com­pe­ti­tion. There was not much im­prove­ment in the dou­bles match as duo Dal­la Cos­ta and Mitchell were then beat­en by the pair of Flo­res and Schtul­man, 1-6, 0-6.

Next door on court five, T&T's oth­er team was al­so swept, 3-0, by the Do­mini­can Re­pub­lic.

In the sin­gles match­es, Za­ck­ery Byng was de­feat­ed by Isaac Guer­rero, 7-5, 6-0 and James Had­den lost to Al­varo Perez, 6-1, 6-3. In the dou­bles match, Byng and part­ner Alexan­der Mer­ry fell to Perez and Jam Gar­cia, 6-1, 6-4.

In the girls' cat­e­go­ry, Cameron Wong gave T&T some glim­mer of hope against Mex­i­co win­ning her sin­gles match but the host coun­try was beat­en in the oth­er sin­gles and dou­bles match­es, los­ing 1-2.

Wong was the lone play­er get­ting a win af­ter beat­ing San­dra Ar­guelles, 7-6 (4), 6-0 in her sin­gles match while Jor­dane Dook­ie was beat­en by Mar­i­anne An­gel, 6-7 (5), 1-6. Lat­er, Wong part­nered with Jae­da-Lee Daniel in their dou­bles match against An­gel and Daniela Gar­zon but lost 2-6, 0-6.
