Two upsets in the Round of 16 at the International Racquetball Tour (IRT) Kansas City Pro-Am / Ghost of Georgetown tournament, as Marco Rojas defeated Tony Carson, 11-4, 11-7, 11-6. He'll take on the IRT #2 Rocky Carson (no relation to Tony) in the quarter finals later on Friday, as Rocky beat Alejandro Herrera, 11-2, 11-4, 11-2, in the 16s.
In the other, Jansen Allen upset 5th seed Chris Crowther, 11-13, 11-3, 11-8, 11-3. He'll play Jose Rojas in the quarter finals, as Rojas beat David Horn, 11-9, 11-5, 11-7.
All the matches in the 16s but one were only three games, including IRT #1 Kane Waselenchuk's win over Travis Woodbury, 11-4, 11-2, 11-0.
The only exception was the Alvaro Beltran - Mike Green match, which Beltran won in four games, 12-10, 2-11, 11-1, 11-2. That looked like it would be in Green's favour after he had a lopsided win in game two, but Beltran came out drive serving in game three and that gave him the extra advantage that led to victory.
The IRT Network will carry the quarter finals live over the web from 4 PM CDT, as well as the semi-finals at 4 PM and 5 PM CDT Saturday and the final at noon on Sunday.
