spots this weekend, after a tough season
last year, as they played in the North
Carolina Open. Top-seeded Jorge Esqueda
was on fire as he took down evaybody
in the Flight A Singles. Esqueda
pushed his way to the finals as he took
care of No. 4 seed Tomas Malik of Coastal

Sunday morning. Esqueda then faced a
tough opponent in second-seeded Paul

beaten Esqueda the last two times they
have met. This match, however, had a
