The College Squash Association (CSA) presented the 2019-2020 All-America teams on Tuesday. The All-America selections have exhibited the highest standard of college squash excellence both during the regular season and throughout championship play.
Representatives from 12 different CSA member institutions make up the men’s and women’s All-America teams. Fittingly, reigning team and individual champions Harvard University earn the most All-America selections, with five for both genders including the first and second teams. Perennial power Trinity College earned the second most honors with six, three for each squad. CSA National Collegiate Individual Championships hosts University of Pennsylvania had the team with the next most selections on a single team, with the men earning four All-America nods, while Howe Cup finalists Princeton University had three honorees of their own.
Two of the three Betty Richey Award finalists – Harvard’s three-time Individual National Champion Georgina Kennedy and Yale’s senior captain Lucy Beecroft – capped off stellar careers by joining elite company with their fourth First Team All-America selection. Seniors Amelia Henley from Harvard and Vanessa Raj from Trinity each captured the fourth All-America award of their careers as well. Super sophomores Sarahi Lopez of Trinity and Sivasangari Subramaniam of Cornell each earned First Team status for the second time in two years.
Once again, the men’s All-America teams are light on seniors, with only four earning selections this year. Of the four, two were Skillman Award finalists – winner Spencer Lovejoy of Yale and Saadeldin Abouaish from Harvard – who completed excellent careers by clinching their third First Team All-American honors each. First-year players helped put (or keep) their teams on the map with All-America honors in their inaugural seasons, including Veer Chotrani from Cornell (First Team), Aly Hussein (First Team) and Omar El Torkey (Second Team) from University of Virginia, and Miko Aijanen (First Team) and Aly Eltokhy (Second Team) of Trinity.
