Paola Longoria defeated Rhonda Rajsich for the third time in
two months to win the 2011 Puget Sound Challenge Pro/Am in Olympia, Washington.
Longoria won it in four games, 9-11, 11-6, 11-3, 12-10. She's won two of the
three Women's Professional Racquetball Organization (WPRO) tournaments so far this season.
Rajsich won the other.
Going into this weekend's event, Longoria was trailed Rajsich in the standings by a little over 80 points. This win may be enough to push Longoria past Rajsich into the #1 ranking that she held for two seasons after taking the top spot from Rajsich, who took it back last season.
The next WPRO event is the Christmas Classic December 8-11 in Arlington, Virginia.
