The top four seeds won their respective quarterfinals Saturday at the World Racquetball Tour (WRT) Suncoast Open in Sarasota, Florida, although the 3rd and 4th seeds both needed tie-breakers to advance to the semi-finals. Top seed Alejandro Cardona defeated Jaime Martell, 15-1, 15-10, and 2nd seed Jake Bredenbeck beat Christian Longoria, 15-4, 15-12.
However, 3rd seed David Horn and 4th seed Andree Parrilla went breaker with their respective opponents. Horn needed three games to fend off his sometime doubles partner Anthony Herrera, 15-7, 11-15, 11-5, and Parrilla came from a game down against Sebastian Franco to win 8-15, 15-6, 11-5.
The semi-finals go at 5 PM EDT on Saturday afternoon. The singles final will be noon on Sunday with the doubles final to follow at 1 PM. You can follow the action via the WRT website.
