2016 WRT Alamo City Open - Round of 32

The Round of 32 is over at the World Racquetball Tour (WRT) Alamo City Open in San Antonio, Texas, and there’s been no real surprises, although there were a couple of tie-breakers and the lower seeded player won both.

In one, 18th seed Cesar Delgado came back from a game down to beat 15th seed Erik Mendoza by the narrowest of margins, 5-15, 15-12, 11-10. In the other, 21st seed Ross Smith Jr defeated 12th seed Arturo Burruel, 15-11, 10-15, 11-7.

Delgado’s win puts him into the Round of 16 against WRT #2 Jaime Martell, while Smith will play 4th seed Rodrigo Montoya.

As anticipated, WRT #3 Andre Parrilla will face Felipe Camacho in the 16s, as Camacho beat A. J. Fernandez, 15-8, 15-5, in the Round of 32.

The Round of 16 begins later Friday afternoon with the quarterfinals starting Saturday morning at 10:30 AM with the semi-finals Saturday evening at 6:05 and 7:10 PM. The final is set for Sunday at 12:30 PM. You can watch the action live on Saturday and Sunday via the WRT website.
