Rocky Carson, the top seed, won his quarterfinal match at the International Racquetball Tour (IRT) Lewis Drug 37th Annual Pro-Am in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, defeating 8th seed Marco Rojas, 11-6, 6-11, 11-7, 11-4.
Carson will play 5th seed Jose Rojas in the semi-finals, as Rojas - Marco's older brother - beat 4th seed Daniel De La Rosa, 10-12, 11-5, 11-7, 11-9.
Carson played solidly, and served mostly drives to the left by standing slightly right of centre. Rojas used a variety of serves, which kept Carson guessing, but during the rallies there were too many shots that Rojas put into the middle, which let Carson control the match.
The IRT Network will carry the quarterfinals from 10 AM CST Saturday. The semi-finals are set for 3 PM and 3:50 PM Saturday with the final at 10:30 AM on Sunday.
