Jack Huczek, playing four days after his 26th birthday, defeated Alvaro Beltran, 11-8, 12-10, 9-11, 11-7, to reach the final of the New York City Pro Am on the International Racquetball Tour (IRT). On Sunday, Huczek will play in his fourth final of the season.
Kane Waselenchuk will be Huczek's opponent, as he beat IRT #1 Rocky Carson in the other semi-final, 11-8, 11-4, 11-2. Carson's defeat ended his tournament winning streak at two, as he won the California Open last week and the Juarez Open in November.
Waselenchuk has won their three meetings this season, including the final of the Kansas event. However, last week at the California Open Huczek had a 2-1 lead in games before Waselenchuk came back to win in a fifth game tie-breaker 11-9.
