Longoria is #1 again - WPRO releases its latest rankings

Paola Longoria is again the #1 women's racquetball player according to the latest rankings released by the Women's Professional Racquetball Organization (WPRO). Longoria was the #1 player at the start of the season, but was overtaken by Rhonda Rajsich, who won the first two events of the season.

But Longoria won the last two WPRO events and those wins have moved her back above Rajsich.

Jennifer Saunders and T.J. Baumbaugh have reached career highs in the rankings. Saunders is now 7th and Baumbaugh 10th. Veronica Sotomayor, who hasn't played an event this season, has fallen out of the top 10, and is now 11th.

Finally, Aubrey O'brien, who was a double gold medalist at the World Junior Racquetball Championships this past week, is just outside the top 20 at 21st.
