Looking Back: Key Moments That Set the Stage for MLTT Season 3
The plays, the players, and the pivotal moments.
By: Sean O’Neill

With the 2025 U.S. Nationals right around the corner, now’s a perfect time to revisit the defining moments of Major League Table Tennis Season 2—and see what they might foreshadow for Season 3. Each team delivered drama, grit, and a few surprises that have reshaped the league heading into the fall.

Carolina Gold Rush
– Enzo Angles and Hong Lin swapped their Season 1 MVP trophies for a Season 2 championship trophy.
– Golden Game wins in front of their home crowd in Raleigh.
– Romain Lorentz clinching the final point over Free Agent Angela Guan for the Texas Smash in the Golden Game in the Championship Match.

Romain will take on Coaching duties for the LA Spinners next season, what a way to go out in style!

Note: Hong Lin will not be returning for Season 3, and defensive standout Wei Wang joins the team as part of the Sid Naresh trade with Portland.

Florida Crocs
– Liam Pitchford’s electric MLTT debut.
– Rivalry win over Princeton to open the season.
– Marc Duran serving up electrifying highlights each and every match.
