CitySquash Competes at the U.S. Junior Open

On December 18th, nine CitySquashers made their way to the Murr Center at Harvard University for the 2010 U.S. Junior Open Squash Championships. The U.S. Open is one of the largest and toughest tournaments on the junior circuit with nearly 650 participants from 21 countries. The CitySquash team, comprised of Robert Williams, Billy Fleurima, Michael Kelly, Katiria Sanchez, Jesse Pacheco, Andrew Cadienhead, Kinglsey Amoako and Leondre Damil, stepped up to the challenge and produced some great results. Notably, Robert Williams won the BU11 consolation plate draw. In the GU17 division, Katiria Sanchez lost in the finals of the plate draw. Battling illness throughout the weekend, Jesse Pacheco showed some true grit making it to the quarterfinals of the GU19 consolation draw. All of our team members played well and went home with at least two victories each. Congratulations to all of our team members for another great tournament!
