After surviving that early scare, squandering a couple of set points & saving a break point, pne of them through a double fault, James eventually took the first set by 6-4.
And starting to look good: *4-3 in the second...
James going well in the doubles, too:
QF: Juan Sebastián Gómez (COL) & James Marsalek UNR defeated João Barra & Gonçalo Pereira (POR/POR) UNR by 3-6 6-3 [11-9]
*****
SF: Daniel Casablancas & David Jorda (ESP/ESP) UNR vs Juan Sebastián Gómez (COL) & James Marsalek UNR
The Spaniards took out their compatriots & top seeds, Arenas & Villacorta in three sets in the first round...
Bugger! James broken to love while serving for the match at 5-4 in the second!
And is broken again, to 40, to drop the second set by 5-7.

Your bad feeling seems to be well-founded . . .
