By way of background, the John Parker Compton Memorial tournament is a USTA level 2 ranking tournament. It honors John Compton who died, shortly after graduating from high school, in Italy during World War II. He was a Scarsdale native, and a graduate of Scarsdale High School where he was a member of the Varsity tennis team. His family founded the tournament to run in perpetuity and dedicated it to their son's sense of honor, fair play and enthusiasm for the sport.
