The medal round continued Wednesday at the 33rd International Racquetball Federation (IRF) World Junior Championships in Guatemala City, Guatemala. Let’s high-light some results.
There were a couple of upsets in the Girls U21 Round of 16. American Annie Roberts had the biggest one as the 11th seed beat the 6th seed Ana Lucia Sarmiento of Ecuador, 11-5, 11-3, 11-6. Roberts will face 3rd seed Maricruz Ortiz of Costa Rica in the quarterfinals on Thursday.
Also, in the 8/9 match, 9th seed Sofia Freer of Costa Rica came back from a game down to defeat the 8th seed Juliette Parent of Canada, 4-11, 12-10, 12-10, 11-7, and book a match with American Shane Diaz in the quarters.
One of the other quarterfinal matches will be a Mexican showdown as 4th Valeria Hernandez plays 5th seed Mafer Gutierrez. Hernandez defeated Bolivian Vielka Loza Mercado, 11-5, 11-2, 9-11, 11-8, in the 16s, while Gutierrez beat Fabiana Landy of Ecuador, 11-6, 11-8, 11-4.
Finally, 7th seed Martina Katz of Argentina looked good in beating 10th seeded Cuban Suniaris Rodriguez, 11-3, 11-4, 11-3, and she’ll need to be just as good when she takes on 2nd seed and current Pan American Champion Angelica Barrios of Bolivia in the quarterfinals on Thursday.
