Art Lekousi, a veteran table tennis with titles and comptetative play in the state for decades, took the opportunity of the 1999 State Championship to display a remarkable ability and consistency that very clearly showed why he dominated state play for so many years. While the final score card shows him placing fourth it does not reflect the awesome display he gave his opponents and the assembled spectators. He easily won the grueling qualifying round with convincing play and astounding shotmaking despite being 50 years older than some of his opponents. His compact stroke and relentless flat, driving forehands wore down opponent after opponent. Combined with his steady defense and minimal unforced errors he produced some of the most exciting and remarkable victories in the past decade of Championship Table Tennis in Maine!
