Sparta, NJ, April 10, 2009 - David Goodman was named today as the on-court announcer of the second annual Newton Motorsports Pro Tennis Classic charity exhibition being held on August 30th at Lake Mohawk Tennis Club.

David will keep everyone, including the players, on their toes. We are very fortunate that David created time in his busy schedule to accommodate this worthwhile cause."
