U.S. Juniors Win Second Straight Ontario-American Challenge Title
from US Squash
August 16, 2011 - The United States repeated their victory of a year ago with a resounding 16-8 win over Ontario in the 2011 Ontario-American Challenge at the White Oak Resort and Spa in Ontario, Canada.
After losing tight matches in 2008 and 2009, the U.S. juniors overpowered their neighbors to the North for the second straight year to take home the "Battle of the Border" trophy.
The juniors participating gained valuable experience partcipating in an international competition along with playing competitive team squash. Both teams exhibited high levels of sportsmanship and developed excellent camaraderie throughout the competition.
The U.S. team was supported by a staff of top coaches, including Gilly Lane, Pam Saunders, Chris Smith, Jacques Swanepoel, Fernanda Rocha and Kelsey Engman
