Miami starts NYC campaign with DreamBreaker win over Las Vegas
In their first match together since July, the Miami Pickleball Club came away with a hard-earned DreamBreaker victory over the Las Vegas Night Owls.
The team’s two wins came from Noe Khlif, who won men’s doubles with Eric Oncins and mixed doubles with Bobbi Oshiro.

The DreamBreaker featured some interesting lineup manipulation, which pit Oncins against Judit Castillo in the No. 2 slot and Oshiro against Blaine Hovenier in the No. 3 slot.
“That’s what DreamBreakers are made of and really what people want to see,” Oshiro said. “My goal was to go at least 50-50 with [Blaine] just because I trust my team to be able to take care of business in the other rotations.”
That’s exactly what happened; Oshiro went 4-4 through two rotations with Hovenier, and Khlif outscored Rafa Hewett 8-4 through three rotations.
Those scores—combined with other clutch performances from Oncins and Milan Rane—helped Miami clinch the win, 21-18.
