Men's World Team Championships Update: Dylan Murray To Replace Injured Todd Harrity On USA Squad 
by Rob Dinerman

Dateline June 4th --- DailySquashReport.com has learned that in the wake of the hamstring injury that Princeton star and 2011 U. S. team member Todd Harrity sustained in training a few weeks ago, junior sensation Dylan Murray has been added to the four-man roster as Harrity’s replacement on the U. S. team that will be competing next week in the biennial WSF Men’s World Team Championship, which is being held in Mulhouse, France. Harrity, who won the Intercollegiate Individual championship in 2011 and reached the final of the 2013 event a few months ago, recently underwent an MRI, which revealed a small tear in the muscle that will take several weeks to heal.

   The Harvard-bound Murray, the top-ranked American junior who posted a strong win over former Intercollegiate Individuals champ Bernardo Samper in the Hyder Cup tournament in New York last month, will join reigning U. S. National champion Chris Gordon along with Julian Illingworth and Gilly Lane on a U. S. team that will be coached by Paul Assaiante. The team will travel on Wednesday to France, which is hosting this tourney for the first time in the 46-year history of the event. Prior to Harrity’s injury, it appeared that the U. S. would be represented by the identical foursome that finished seventh in 2011, which would have been the first time ever that the U. S. had entered consecutive holdings of this prestigious championship with the same lineup.
