Our Butterfly player Steven Moreno and his teammate Enrique Ríos became the U-13 Category Pan American Champions for the second year in a row. It is remarkable to recognize that this title was won undefeated, without losing a game with a record of 18-0.

The winning route began in the group stage defeating Brazil B and Venezuela B both with scores of 3-0, managing to advance from the top of the group to the main bracket.  The first match of the key was in the round of 16 against Peru with a score of 3-0.  In the quarterfinal round they faced Venezuela A defeating them with scores of 3-0.

In this way they went to the semifinal against the Brazil A team, where the Puerto Ricans defeated Felipe Ocano and Vinicius Rech 3-0.  In the final series they beat Colombia A, Enrique began by dominating Juan Garzón 3-0 with runs of 11-7, 11-4 and 11-5.  Then Steven won 3-1 against Emanuel Otálvaro with scores of 10-12, 11-8, 11-9 and 11-2 and in the doubles match to define the Championship Enrique and Steven beat Juan and Emanuel 11-9, 12-10 and 11-6.

Congratulations to our sponsored player Steven and his partner Enrique and our Sponsor Coach Edgardo Vázquez who continue their winning path representing Puerto Rico.
