2014 WRT Fall Brawl - Round of 16

The Round of 16 at the World Racquetball Tour's (WRT's) Fall Brawl in Lombard, Illinois ran mostly to form, according to the seedings, but Danny Lavely upset 6th seed Gerardo Guervara, 15-6, 15-5. Earlier Friday, Lavely defeated Tim Landeryou, a Canadian National Team member, in the Round of 32, so he's having a good tournament.

Next up for Lavely will be 3rd seed David Horn, who was a 15-7, 15-6 winner over Kurtis Cullen.

They are also playing doubles in Lombard, and Lavely and Horn will also face off in doubles on Saturday, as he and Mauricio Zelada defeated Jorge Hirsekorn and Roberto Santander, 15-14, 4-15, 11-0. Horn is playing with veteran Cliff Swain.

Number 1 seed Alejandro Cardona beat Fernando Kurzbard, 15-10, 15-4, in his first match of the tournament, as he had a bye in the first round. He'll play Juan Herrera defeated Francisco Troncoso, 15-2, 15-8, which wasn't as close a match as we in the quarterfinals on Saturday after Herrera defeated Geoff Goldblatt in the Round of 16, 15-10, 15-8.
