 * Comment it seems like he won the Under 1450 RR category at the 2006 US Open Ping Pong champianship - does anyone have the slightest clue what that is? WilyD 19:23, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, I misread the source, he actually won the Cadet Boys Singles - but I believe this is enough to take him past the athlete requirements in WP:BIO. Anyways, I added a reference, so he passes WP:V, at least.  I see no reason to believe the article is vanity or spam, in any event.  Can anyone more familiar with ping pong comment on the importance of the win? WilyD 19:39, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
