The seedings have played out as predicted, and it'll be one versus two in the final of the Ladies Professional Racquetball Tour (LPRT) California Regionals Tournament in Reseda, California Sunday when #1 Paola Longoria tries to keep her winning streak going when she faces #2 Rhonda Rajsich.

Longoria defeated Samantha Salas Solis in the semi-finals, 11-3, 11-9, 11-3, on Saturday, as well as having a walkover win against Jacqueline Paraiso.
