President’s Message July, 2022 NMRacquetball.com New Mexico
The month of June was ‘Active.’ Riverpoint hosted its first full-fledged tournament in 3 years. The Art Hurley Memorial was a huge success thanks to the efforts of Mike Duran, Dan Cannady, Herman Hernandez, Frances Borunda, and Tim Blasiman. (See results). Next came the 45th Year Celebration of NM Racquetball. Fun, food, music, prizes, and presentations filled the air at the Daily Grind Restaurant on Cutler NE. Congratulations to Terry Lauritsen, Tom Neill Jr., and Jennifer Mazaroff, all recipients of the NM Racquetball Lifetime Achievement Award. Finally for June, the Ralph Waddington NM Games multi-discipline festival was held at Midtown. Five sports---racquetball, handball, squash, squash 57, and paddleball were part of the equation. (See results).
