T&T's Em-Miryam Camp­bell-Singh, Shiloh Walk­er and Nao­mi Mo­hammed put up a good fight against the Ba­hamas but went un­der, 2-1, on Tues­day in the In­ter­na­tion­al Ten­nis Fed­er­a­tion/Con­fed­er­a­tion of Ten­nis of Cen­tral Amer­i­ca and the Caribbean (ITF/COTECC) Ju­nior Un­der-12 Tour­na­ment in the Do­mini­can Re­pub­lic.

On­ly the girls were in ac­tion for T&T as the boys' team of Con­nor Car­ring­ton, Bri­an Har­richa­ran and Ni­rav Dougdeen, who swept St Lu­cia in both sin­gles and dou­bles cat­e­gories on Mon­day, had a rest day.

Tak­ing on the Ba­hamas, their rep­re­sen­ta­tive Bri­ana Houl­grave got the bet­ter of Walk­er in straight sets 6-6, 6-2 for the 1-0 lead.

Camp­bell-Smith got T&T back on track as she lev­elled the score at 1-1 when she beat Tatyana Madu­aby­chuk­wu 6-5 in the first set and in the sec­ond set with the score 5-5, the Ba­hami­an re­tired hurt.

Af­ter that suc­cess, she teamed up with Nao­mi Mo­hammed to take on Kay­lah Fox and Houl­grave in the Dou­bles. The first set went to the Ba­hamas with a 6-4 score. In the sec­ond set, T&T showed more fight com­ing back to win the set 4-6 and force a third and fi­nal set.

In the tiebreak­er, Ba­hamas were too strong win­ning 10-3 to seal a hard-fought 2-1 win over T&T.

On Wednes­day, the girls will be back in ac­tion against St Lu­cia and the boys will take on Ja­maica.
