2024 IRT Lewis Drug Pro/Am - Round of 32

No surprises on Thursday at the International Racquetball Tour (IRT) Lewis Drug Pro/Am in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, as all the higher seeds save one. But that was in the 16/17 match, and it was former #1 Kane Waselenchuk, seeded 17th, defeating 16th seed Sam Bredenbeck, 15-10, 15-10. Bredenbeck actually led early in both games, but wasn’t able to close out either of them against the IRT’s career wins title holder.

Current #1 Daniel De La Rosa needed a tie-breaker to defeat Coby Iwaasa, winning 15-11, 14-15, 11-8, which sets up the anticipated showdown between De La Rosa and Waselenchuk in the Round of 16 Friday morning.

IRT #2 Jake Bredenbeck beat young Canadian Christian Pocsai, 15-5, 15-5, Thursday, and will play 15th seed Erick Trujillo Friday, as Trujillo defeated 18th seed Javier Mar, 15-12, 15-13, in the 16s.

In doubles, top seeds Mar and Rodrigo Montoya will play 8th seeds Robert Collins and Trujillo, who came back from a game down to defeat 9th seeds Iwaasa and Samuel Murray, 9-15, 15-10, 11-6.
