Leach, Davis among pros helping battle liver disease
Orange County tennis greats Rick Leach and Scott Davis will and other top pros will participate in a tennis tournament Feb. 2 to raise money for local athlete Howard Dell.

The Howard Dell Pro-Am tournament will raise money for the Olympian and former pro football player.
Dell, who competed on the 1988 Canadian bobsled team, is also a substitute teacher at Corona del Mar High.
The tournament will be held Feb. 2 at 1 p.m. at Newport Beach Tennis Club. The entry fee for a Pro-Am spot is $250, or supporters can play in the round robin tournament, which is $50.
