LUCKY SEVEN FOR GUDINAS-HOLMES
Cheryl Gudinas-Holmes Captures Her Seventh Championship Singles Gold Medal
The 2008 USA Racquetball National Singles Racquetball Championships concluded on Monday as Gold medals were awarded in 74 championship divisions. The Men's and Women's U.S. Team Qualifying divisions also earn one-year appointments to the U.S. National Racquetball Team.
The women took center stage as Cheryl Gudinas-Holmes defeated Kristen Bellows in the championship finals, 15-2, 15-5.
With her win, Cheryl has won seven women's singles championships in the sports top division and currently serves as Assistant Coach on the U.S. National Junior Team.
The Men's U.S. Team championship final was a match-up of the USAR's top ranked players Jack Huczek and Rocky Carson.
The match lived up to the hype as Huczek came back from a deficit to win the first game 15-12. That momentum carried into the second game but Carson went on a roll and took the game 15-9 to force the tie-breaker. Carson came out red hot and won 11-4 to capture his fourth championship title.
The USA Racquetball Hall of Fame 35th Anniversary Celebration was also a night to remember as all the living legends of the sport were in attendance.
