US Open - Women's Round of 32 - UPDATED

Jessica Parrilla is the story of the early rounds of the 2010 US Open in the Women's Professional Racquetball Organization's (WPRO's) main draw, as she upset 7th seed Jennifer Saunders to advance to the Round of 16, 3-11, 11-6, 1-11, 11-6, 11-7. This comes the day after the young Mexican won two qualifying matches, including a victory over the 2nd seeded qualifier Sheryl Lotts, 11-6, 3-11, 6-11, 11-8, 11-6.

Parrilla will next meet Sharon Jackson, who was an upset winner over 10th seed Keely Franks, 11-1, 9-11, 11-8, 11-7.

In other action, 3rd seed Cheryl Gudinas found herself in a two game deficit against Michelle Key, but once again Gudinas showed why she's been the US Open champion twice as she came back and won in five games, 10-12, 10-12, 11-4, 11-2, 11-7.

Both top two seeds advanced in three straight games. Number 1 seed Paola Longoria beat Da'monique Davis, 11-3, 11-2, 11-6, and Number 2 seed and defending champion Rhonda Rajsich defeated Frédérique Lambert, 11-1, 11-9, 11-5.

The women's Round of 32 continues Thursday at the Lifetime Fitness - Target Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The women will play twice on Friday: the Round of 16 and the quarter finals.
