As one of the most accomplished junior players in Oklahoma's history, Brook Buck ranked #1 in USTA Girls 16 and Girls 18 for three consecutive years and held the top spot nationally in both G16 singles and doubles in 2002. She went on to win four consecutive state titles at #1 singles, and her success continued at the University of Notre Dame, where she became one of the most distinguished players in the school's history.

A true trailblazer in Oklahoma tennis, Melissa McCorkle has been instrumental in growing the game, especially in Tulsa metro area. As the Director of Tennis at LaFortune Park Tennis Center for over 21 years, Melissa and her team have built LaFortune into a hub for tennis, home to more USTA leagues than any other city in the Missouri Valley Section.  Melissa’s leadership has made LaFortune Park a vital part of Tulsa’s tennis landscape.
