TOP seed Nathan Hill was among the first players to book a quarter-final berth in the York Squash Open at York RI.
Hill was a 3-0 winner over Paul Robson in round two and he was joined in the last eight by second seed Matt Inglis, who whitewashed Rod Erridge, and Simon Middleton, the fourth seed, who beat James Rollinson 3-0.
In the remaining first round games, number three seed Paul Adams, of Next Generation, eased past Stillington's Duncan Cook.
Seventh seed Mathew Stephenson, of Dunnington, had little problem in winning the first two games against York's Paul Buckland.
He met stern resistance in the third game as Buckland established a 8-4 lead, but Stephenson fought back to win the next six points.
Mike Goodwin recorded a comprehensive victory over his RI colleague Steve Kilgallon 3-0.
