2016 Campeonato Nacional Mexicano de Racquetbol Selectivo - Friday

The upsets continue at the Campeonato Nacional Mexicano de Racquetbol Selectivo tournament in Chihuahua, Mexico. Most significant happened in Men’s Doubles, as 18th seeds Rodrigo Montoya and Andree Parrilla knocked off the 2nd seeds Daniel De La Rosa and Edson Martinez, 5-15, 15-13, 11-5.

Two other big winners in Chihuahua are Ramon Yañez and Ruben Estrada, who were seeded 26th and 25th respectively, in Men’s Singles, but have both reached the quarterfinals. Yañez defeated Alan Palomino, 15-10, 15-1, in the Round of 16, to set up a match with De La Rosa in the quarters, as De La Rosa defeated Eduardo Garay in the 16s in three games, 3-15, 15-9, 11-6.

Estrada upset 9th seed Erick Sandoval in the 16s, 11-5, 15-6, 11-9, and will play top seed Alvaro Beltran in the quarters. Beltran was a straight game winner over Rodrigo Garay, 15-7, 15-9.

Perhaps the most hotly contested quarterfinal in Men’s Singles will be a battle of Alejandros, as Alejandro Landa will play Alejandro Cardona. In the 16s, Landa defeated another Alejandro, Alejandro Romo, 15-5, 15-7, while Cardona beat Jaime Martell, 15-6, 15-12. An added element to that match is that Landa and Cardona are doubles partners in this event, and have reached the quarterfinals in that.

In women’s play, it was not a good day for Alexandra Herrera, as the young lefthander lost in both singles and doubles. In a match of two lefties, Susana Acosta beat Herrera in Women’s Singles, 7-15, 15-4, 11-7, and in Women’s Doubles Herrera and Ximena Gonzalez were the 2nd seeds, but were upset by 7th seeds Sofia Rascon and Lucia Gonzalez, 15-13, 12-15, 11-7.

In Women’s Singles, top seed Paola Longoria easily won her match in the quarterfinals against Jessica Maldonado, 15-4, 15-2, and will play another Jessica in the semi-finals. That will be Jessica Parrilla, who was an upset winner against Lucia Gonzalez, 15-12, 15-12, in the 4/5 seed match.
