Four Titles for CitySquash at the Urban Team Championship

CitySquash had its most succesful showing to date at the 2011 Nusea Urban Team Championships on January, 14th – 16th.  CitySquash team members won three squash titles and one academic essay competition.  The CitySquash BU13 “A” team, consisting of Billy Fleurima, Jeremy Carrasquillo, Bryson Grant, Cristian Escalona and Robert Williams, won its division without losing a match.  The GU13 division was dominated by CitySquash as our “A” team defeated our “B” team in the final.  The winning team consisted of Mellba Hasani, Esmeralda Mejias, Karina Lazaro, Alexandra Limas and Maria Serrano.  The terrific results by all of our under 13 players bodes well for the future of CitySquash.  The third squash title came from the BU15 team who won a very close final against a talented SquashHaven team.  The BU15 team was made up of Michael Kelly, Gabriel Garcia, Leondre Damil, William Pantle and Markel Nunez.  The fourth title of the weekend came in the essay competition.  Helen Avila’s essay describing three things that represent her was selected as the best essay for the GU17/19 division.  These four titles are the most ever won by a CitySquash team at the Urban Team Championships.  We congratulate all of our team members on their exceptional performance on the court and in the essay competition.
