Guidry, Gonzalez Capture Men's Open
Title in Tiebreaker Levine, Russell End Streak for Paraiso
The Ektelon 32nd U.S. National Doubles Championships presented by Penn Racquet
Sports wrapped at the Merritt Athletic Club in Baltimore, Md., today with Mike
Guidry (Carrollton, Texas) and Ruben Gonzalez (Staten Island, N.Y.) capturing
the men's open title and Robin Levine (Sacramento, Calif.) and Kim Russell
(Chattanooga, Tenn.) winning the women's open.
Guidry and Gonzalez met Adam Karp (Stockton, Calif.) and Andy Roberts (Collierville, Tenn.) in today's final, which was full of surprises. After trailing 12-7 in the first game, Guidry and Gonzalez rallied back to pull within one point at 14-13, when Roberts killed the ball with a line drive down the left wall to capture the first game, 15-13.
In the second game, the two teams exchanged the lead seven times as they both vied for the national crown. With the score tied at 14-14, Roberts slammed the ball into the left corner out of the reach of Guidry, and Roberts and Karp began their celebration of a national title. But, it was a bit premature, as Guidry raised the ball up to show that it had been broken during play, resulting in the rally being played over again. Unable to put away the match on the replay, Guidry and Gonzalez recovered the serve. Roberts appeared to intentionally block a shot by Guidry that the referee ruled as an avoidable hinder, resulting in a point for Gonzales and Guidry, winning them the game, 15-14.
With the matched tied up at one game apiece, the battle for title of national champions went into an 11-point tiebreaker. In that tiebreaker, Guidry and Gonzalez ran out to a 9-2 lead and never looked back, winning it 11-3 and capturing the national crown.
"The broken ball was definitely a break. We need a little break, and we got a huge one," Guidry said. "Things like that happen for a reason. It was destiny telling us we were supposed to win that game."
This championship marked Guidry's return to amateur competition after competing on the International Racquetball Tour (IRT) for numerous years.
"You play on the tour, and you think things can't get anymore exciting, but this is a feeling that I haven't had in a long time," said 29-year-old Guidry, whose last national title was in 1989.
Gonzalez, known as a legend in the sport of racquetball, was the favorite of the crowd today at the Merritt Athletic Club. "Crowds want to see the old man dive and say how did he do that?" said 49-year-old Gonzalez, who despite still being an active elite-level player, has already been nominated for the USRA Hall of Fame.
The women's division saw the end to a streak in today's final. Jackie Paraiso (El Cajon, Calif.), who has captured the past two women's open division titles with her twin sister Joy MacKenzie (Santee, Calif.), lost to Levine and Russell. Paraiso had teamed up with Laura Fenton (Lincoln, Neb.) for the championships due to her twin sister's retirement following their gold-medal performance in women's doubles at this summer's Pan Am Games.
"I really missed my sister out there today on the court," said Paraiso, who captured her fourth-straight mixed open title earlier in the day with her brother Joe Paraiso (El Cajon, Calif.). "We always had a connection on the court that could make up for an off day. I just didn't have that today."
The title is a first for Levine and Russell, who finished second at last year's championships. "This is great. We've both been training very hard to get to this moment. I've been very fortunate that my job with Home Depot through the Olympic Job Opportunities Program (OJOP) has allowed me to take the time off I needed to train and travel for this event," Levine said.
