2021 WPH Outdoor 3-Wall Icebreaker #11 – Men’s Rd 8 (Esser vs Ruiz)

The WPH proudly hosted the Icebreaker 11 at Tucson’s Clark Park, the 11th Icebreaker since the restart of pro handball in September of 2020. Dubbed the Icebreaker because the WPH was safely “breaking the ice” during the pandemic, the Icebreaker tour has attracted virtually all of the best players from North America. The Icebreaker 11 was the final opportunity for the Icebreaker pros to earn Icebreaker ranking points in advance of the Ice Bowl – the Icebreaker season-ending championship.

Shorty Ruiz entered the eleventh Icebreaker as the #2 ranked player on the Icebreaker tour, but would have to overcome his Tucson rival Sam Esser to maintain his ranking. Ruiz had defeated Esser in two close games earlier on the Icebreaker tour. Would Esser exact revenge, or would Ruiz advance?
