Happy Birthday Paola Longoria


Happy Birthday to WPRO Professional Racquetball player Paola Longoria who turns 22 today. She is the first Mexican woman to attain the #1 ranking on the Women's Professional Racquetball Organization (WPRO) tour, doing so at the end of the 2008-09 season and at the end of 2009-2010 season as well.
Paola is also the first Mexican - woman or man - to win the prestigious US OPEN Racquetball Championships in 2008. She has been a finalist the last two years losing only to Rhonda Rajsich in those finishes.
Also, Longoria won eight consecutive International Racquetball Federation (IRF) World Junior Championships from 2001 to 2008, winning twice in each age category from 12 and under, 14 and under, 16 and under, and 18 and under.

Paola Longoria Suspended For First WPRO Pro Event

Racquetballjunkie.com is reporting that WPRO Paola Longoria has been suspended for the first WPRO pro event of the 2011-2012 season due to some disciplinary action she faced from an event during the 2010-2011 season. Longoria will miss the Ektelon WPRO Texas Open in Dallas, TX which will be August 26-28, 2011. Is this really healthy or fair to the players and sponsors of the WPRO event in Texas? There is much talk about the actions that were taken against Longoria who was disciplined for her actions that took place at the Stockton pro event last April.

Working on my last BIG official Championship event this year. Actually, Jim Hiser and I, Joe Williams and Jim Easterling have been working on this event since the last one in 2023. It's really a labor of love to make sure all the details, planning and extra work that goes into hosting a first class event. World Singles and Doubles Website Most people just show up, play and want to enjoy every moment in a short window of 4 days! But the preparation to get there is tremendous when you have a good strong team and committee as we do. Nobody can run an event alone, any seasoned event director knows that and will tell you that.
