10th Annual Muterspaw Championship Tournament
May 1-3, 2010
Sites: Darling Tennis Center, Bishop Gorman High School & Lorenzi Park
The Muterspaw Championships, now in its tenth year, was created in the memory of Josh and Jason Muterspaw, two childhood friends of Andre Agassi who tragically lost their lives. Josh Muterspaw, who was ranked No. 1 in the 18-and-under age group in Southern Nevada, died in 1994 at 18 following a long fight against adrenal cancer. Jason, who was ranked No. 1 in the Intermountain section in the Boys 14s, 16s and 18s, died in a car crash at 28 years old.
The brothers attended Chaparral High School and were two of the best tennis players to come from Southern Nevada.
The Andre Agassi Charitable Foundation annually donates $10,000 of the tournament’s proceeds to a scholarship fund at UNLV named after the brothers.
