The WCRC is new and improved !
Half of the participants are new to the WCRC this year.
And, the women's draw is improved and growing with 16
players!
Candy Wong won the Women's division, continuing where she left
off winning last Spring at UC Santa
Cruz. Veteran Christine O'Neil of Stanford came in second,
and Martha Ferhman and Kim Davis of UC Santa Cruz came in third
and fourth ... The Davis women usually have top results
at our Davis tourneys, so the Feb 6, 2010 Davis
tourney is going to be very interesting!
Congratulations to Steve Harrell of Cal for winning Men's II
... He will be a part of the rebuilding of Men's
I. Last Fall in Men's III, Steve Harrell won and Ryan
Hebler of UC Santa Cruz finished in the semi finals. This
Fall in Men's II, Steve won and Ryan finished second to Steve.
Rick Alfaro won Men's III early 2009 at UC Davis, and
finish third in Men's II.
10 of the 13 Men's III players are new to the WCRC this year.
Welcome! New player Henry Kelly from UC Santa Cruz won Men's
III. We look forward to players improving and growing with the
WCRC.
A very special thanks to David "Bobby" Horn
for bringing pro level racquetball to the WCRC. David is currently
ranked around 50th, and is back from an injury and will be back
hitting the Pro Tour this season. It's great experience for
the other Men's I players, and everyone else at the tourney,
to see pro level racquetball.
Our next Tourney is scheduled for
Sat. Feb. 6, 2010 at UC
Davis
with 7 glass racquetball courts !!! |
