INTENNSE SEMIFINALS: FREEZE 163 vs. INFERNO 142

A highly anticipated semifinal matchup lived up to the hype, as FREEZE continued its strong late-season form and earned a spot in the championship match. Seone Mendez set the tone from the opening point, taking it to Usue Arconada in women's singles and giving FREEZE an early lead. Her aggressive play and consistency put FREEZE in control from the start and forced INFERNO to play from behind for most of the night.

Men's singles has been an INFERNO weakness throughout the season, and that trend continued in this matchup. Blu Baker wasn't at his best, while FREEZE took full advantage of every opportunity. Karue Sell and Raul Garcia were outstanding, especially in men's doubles, where they controlled the pace of play and consistently won the biggest points. Their chemistry and shot-making helped Freeze keep building momentum throughout the match.

INFERNO had moments where it looked ready to make a push, but every time they threatened, FREEZE answered with another big performance. The balanced effort across the lineup proved to be too much to overcome.

With another impressive team performance, FREEZE appears to be peaking at exactly the right time. They are now just one win away from the championship as they prepare for a marquee finals showdown with the OUTRIDERS.

FREEZE Head Coach Simon Pritchard: “Today was the definition of a team performance. We go out there and we trust our tennis and that will be good enough.”

FREEZE Raul Garcia: “I’m really happy that we got the win finally. I think we have to keep doing the same thing as we did. It is going to be extra emotional because I won it last year and I really, really, really want to go back-to-back. We are gonna give it our all.”
