Boston, MA — If Boston University plans to return to the Chaffee Cup final, it will have to get through the fall semester. With their number 2 and 6 from last season studying abroad during the first semester and the graduation of their number 5, the Terriers remaining and new players will have to step up to to fill the vacated positions. According to captain Chaiyatat Ben Bunjapamai, “With the guaranteed return of two key players in January our team will be much stronger and this could be instrumental in making a late push in the rankings before the Team Championships.” Boston University has two first year players expected to join the top 9, which will assist them. Boston-based competition will be key to the Terriers’ season. Once again this season, Boston University will be volunteering with SquashBusters, the Boston-based urban squash program.
