WPRO Pro National Champion.. CONGRATULATIONS Paola you deserve it!
Paola finishes the season winning the last event of the season on May 13-15 – the WPRO Pro Nationals, a Grand Slam held in New Orleans, LA, against a fierce competitor, Rhonda Rajsich. This was a sweet victory for Paola as she lost to Rhonda in Stockton, CA, just 2 weeks prior in a very close 11-13 tie breaker. It was great to be there in New Orleans coaching Paola
to a 3-0 final.
There is no question in both our minds that her visit to Seattle for training the week before the event was an integral part of her playing so well. We worked out hard with my personal trainer, Austin Treloar for 3 days and spent 5 grueling days on the court working on very specific areas of her game. Unfortunately Paola will not have much rest as she has to continue
training for the Mexican National Championships in June. The top 2 women and top 2 men who make the team qualify to represent her country in the Pan American Championships at the end of October in Guadalajara, MX.
