2014 United Healthcare US Open Racquetball Championships - Men's Doubles

No big surprises so far in the International Racquetball Tour (IRT) doubles competition at the 2014 United Healthcare US Open Racquetball Championships in Minneapolis, but both the #1 seed and #2 seed were pushed to tiebreakers in order to advance to Thursday.

Top seeds Jansen Allen and Tony Carson beat John Goth and Aaron Granberg, 15-3, 4-15, 11-4, and 2nd seeds Jose Diaz and Marco Rojas defeated Alejandro Cardona and Roland Keller, 14-15, 15-4, 11-9.

Those teams could also play the most competitive quarterfinal matches, as Allen and Carson play Jake Bredenbeck and Taylor Knoth, and Jose Diaz and Marco Rojas will face David Horn and Andree Parrilla.

Play will streamed live via the IRT Network from Wednesday at 7 PM CDT.
