IRF World Juniors - Boy's doubles results

The top four seeds in Boy's U18 Doubles are through to the semi-finals at the 25th International Racquetball Federation (IRF) World Junior Racquetball Championships in Sucre, Bolivia, but it's a different story in Boy's U16 Doubles, as the 3rd and 4th seeds lost on Thursday.

Mexicans Rodrigo Garay and Javier Mar are the top seeds in U18 and they beat Michael Leduc & Anthony Schonberger (Canada), 15-10, 15-3, in the quarter finals Thursday and in the semis will face the 4th seeded leftie-rightie team of Sawyer Lloyd and Adam Manilla of the USA, who knocked off the 5th seeds Diego Pimentel and Junior Rodriguez (Dominican Rep.), 15-1, 15-9, in the quarters.

On the other side of the draw it's Bolivians Conrado Moscoso and Sebastian Julio Oña against Costa Ricans Andres Aviles and Gabriel Garcia in the semi-finals. Bolivia beat Rodrigo Salgado & Diego Silva (Chile), 15-4, 15-5, in the quarters and Costa Rica defeated Estevan Aldana and Edwin Galicia of Guatemala, 15-7, 15-3.

In Boy's U14 Doubles, the Mexican team of Cesar Barragan and Cristian Longoria remains undefeated at 4-0 with the Bolivians Andres Avendaño and Rodrigo Mendoza 3-1, so those are likely your gold and silver medalists, respectively.

Costa Ricans Sergio Acuna and Andres Montero and Ecuadorans Juan Francisco Cueva and Jorge Ochoa both have records of 2-2 going into the last match day, but the edge goes to Costa Rica for bronze, as they have to face the winless American team while Ecuador faces Mexico. Costa Rica did beat Ecuador in an 11-8 tie-breaker in the 2nd round of play, so even if they finished with 3-2 records that result would put Costa Rica ahead of Ecuador.

There is some live streaming of matches from Sucre via the IRF website.
