Danny also won the under-13 boys singles, with Calum finishing as the runner-up.
Among other competing Lanark Grammar kids, Ben Strang was runner-up in the under-15 boys singles, Ben and Owen Robson won the under-16 boys doubles, twins Lauren and Sarah Kennedy won the under-16 girls doubles and the unrelated Eilidh Millar and Sophie Millar were runners-up in the under-19 girls doubles.
