BU13 Win Urban Team Title

Fifty- five CitySquashers travelled to Philadelphia for the Urban Team Nationals on the weekend of January 24-25. Team members were coached by the CitySquash staff, including academic directors who we’re learning a thing or two about squash themselves! The tournament was hosted by SquashSmarts, and brought together 12 of the 15 NUSEA programs. Matches were played at SquashSmarts Lenfest Center, the Drexel Daskalakis Athletic Center, and the Penn Ringe Squash Courts. CitySquash came away with a win in the BU13 division, and had finalists in the GU13, GU17 and BU17 divisions. There were many exciting and entertaining matches throughout the weekend, including a first round match up between two of the BU13 CitySquash teams, pitting elementary schoolers against middle schoolers! The students had a fantastic time at the tournament and played excellent squash. Thank you to SquashSmarts for hosting the event, and to the six families that hosted CitySquash in their homes.
