■ Tennis community, family mourn death of beloved Cleveland High, UO athlete Alex Rovello won friends and matches

erkeley Park is just a few blocks’ downhill stroll from the Eastmoreland home of Jim and BGeri Rovello. The walk is going to be a lot longer now. And so different. Their only child, Alex Rovello, spent countless hours at Berkeley Park, from age 2 on, hitting tennis balls with his fa- ther or friends. It was there that Alex began to hone the skills that would make him the fi rst four-time state champion in Oregon high school history and the No. 1 player at the University of Oregon. This week, the courts at Berkeley STORY BY Park have become STEVE — and Alex’s friends would say deserve to BRANDON forever be — a shrine COURTESY OF THE ROVELLO FAMILY to the most decorated Alex Rovello gets a lift (above) from former athlete in Cleveland Oregon Ducks teammate Jose “Pepe’” High and state prep tennis history.
