2009-2010 Women’s College Squash Team Rankings (12/8/2009)

College Squash AssociationNorthampton, MA — There is a new number one in the latest Women’s College Squash Association rankings: Harvard University.  The Crimson earned this distinction by going 4-0 with victories over Brown, Williams, Dartmouth, and Cornell.

Princeton, the former number one, dropped to seventh.  The Tigers have been plagued by injuries to open the season.  Princeton began the season in Ithaca, NY, playing matches against Stanford and host Cornell. Stanford defeated the Tigers 5-4, but lost to Cornell 3-6.  Princeton defeated Cornell 5-4. Between the three teams, Cornell won 10 matches (6 against Stanford, 4 against Princeton), Stanford won 9 matches (6 against Princeton, 3 against Cornell), and Princeton won 8 matches (5 against Cornell, and 3 against Stanford).  Using this rationale, the ranking committee placed Cornell 5th, Stanford 6th, and Princeton 7th in the latest rankings.

George Washington dropped from 15th to 23rd. The Colonials lost to Georgetown and Franklin & Marshall. With their victory, the Hoyas moved up to the 22nd spot, while the Diplomats improved to 21st.
