Remember Great Philly Ping Pong Players from Past?

I love watching table tennis (ping-pong). I grew up in Bridesburg in the 80's. Everyday after school I always met my freinds at the brideburg boys & Girls club. The club had like 5 ping pong tables. Does anyone remember playing with the great players in the neighborhood? Probably in Philly. I remember the Murphy twins,Gary & Glen,they were both great players. Carl Mills was another great player at the time. The best match I ever watched at the club was against Carl & one of the Murphy twins. I think Carl Won, but it was a great game. Does anyone remember other great players from the club? Does anyone know where or what the Murphy Twins or Carl Mills are now? If antone has any stories about growing up in Bridesburg, I would love to hear them.
