WITH all odds stacked against him, Ameer Mohammed managed to make the national under-19 table tennis team at the National Racquet Centre, Orange Grove Main Road, Tacarigua last Saturday.
After losing all four straight first round matches earlier in the day, the University of Trinidad and Tobago player spent more than five minutes on the ground with cramps in his opening match of the second round. Mohammed, who was at the time deadlocked with Gabriel John in the deciding fifth game, was expected to throw in the towel, but he somehow managed to get back on his feet and to limp to victory (11-2, 3-11, 7-11, 11-8, 13-11) after saving a match point.
The 18-year-old, who had lost the first round match 12-10, 12-10, 11-7, then also took revenge on two other players who had defeated him earlier in the day.
Mohammed defeated Jonathan Cottoy 11-9, 11-8, 11-6 after failing to win a game in the first round, and after coming out against Samuel Humphreys in four games, he had the last laugh at 11 -5, 7-11. 11-2, 11-8 to earn the fourth and final pick.
Malik Gopaul and Josiah Joseph were automatically selected and Sekel McIntosh had won the first trial event for third place.
Cottoy, who also won three matches in the first round but had to settle for second place as he was defeated (11-9, 14-12, 11-5) by his fellow 15-year-old, did not even finish as the reserve .
John, who recently returned from a stay in China. last year's Silver Bowl Under-15 champion 8-11, 11-7, 10-12, 13-11, 11-7 for this place.
Humphreys, who did not show up to compete for the reserve spot, and John fell in four games in the first round to McIntosh, who defeated Cottoy and Mohammed in three consecutive games.
Joseph and France-based Gopaul were given byes in the men's trials, with the latter eventually taking the fourth and final spot, behind US-based Derron Douglas, Yuvraaj Dookram and Aaron Wilson.
The players who qualified will represent Trinidad and Tobago in regional and international tournaments this year.
