I have this block in a switch case statement that when selected, just breaks and presents me with the main menu again.
 System.out.println("Choose a competitor surname");
    String competitorChoice2 = input.nextLine();
    int lowestSpeed = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
    int highestSpeed = 0;
    for(int j = 0; j < clipArray.length; j++) {
        if(clipArray[j] != null) {
            if(competitorChoice2.equals(clipArray[j].getSurname())) {
                if(clipArray[j].getSpeed() > clipArray[highestSpeed].getSpeed()) {
                    highestSpeed = j;
                }
            }
        }
    }
    for(int i = 0; i < clipArray.length; i++) {
        if(clipArray[i] != null) {
            if(competitorChoice2.equals(clipArray[i].getSurname())) {
                if(clipArray[i].getSpeed() < clipArray[lowestSpeed].getSpeed()) {
                    lowestSpeed = i;
                }
            }
        }
   }  
   for(int h = lowestSpeed; h < highestSpeed; h++ ) {
       System.out.println(""+clipArray[h].getLength());
   }
I have an array of objects and each object has a surname and a speed.
I want the user to choose a surname and display the speeds of all of their clips from lowest to highest.
when I select this option it just breaks and brings me back to the main menu
