The Samson Dubina Table Tennis Academy would like to congratulate Roger liu for being the October student of the month. Roger had an outstanding performance at the Millcreek Open dominating the u2400 event. There are several reasons
#1 Focus
Roger showed very good focus throughout his matches and was fighting hard for every point.
#2 Helpfulness
Roger was a team player and was willing to help others throughout the weekend. At various times throughout the tournament, Roger was seen coaching and cheering for other SDTTA members.
