Below are the early results from Wednesday at the 29th International Racquetball Federation (IRF) World Junior Racquetball Championships in Minneapolis, Minnesota at Lifetime Fitness Target Center. This is the first playoff day, so players who lose from this day forward are eliminated from the tournament. It's win or go home.
A few of the early matches did go tie-breaker, including one of the dreaded team-mate versus team-mate, which a team always hates to have early in the playoffs. But Costa Ricans Melissa Barrantes and Aranxa Anguizola met in the first round of Girls U16, and played a close first two games, but in the breaker, Barrantes ran away with, winning 14-15, 15-12, 11-1.
The IRF World Juniors playoff continues Wednesday and runs through Saturday. Check out the IRF Facebook page for live streaming of the event.
