The College Squash Association (CSA) Women’s and Club Team Rankings are now final after all teams in those divisions completed their last regular season matches by this past Sunday. The Men’s Team Rankings are very close to their final form, barring any unexpected results from the final few matches this week.
With the National College Women’s Team Championships and Club Team Championships commencing on Friday this week, the CSA will use these final rankings to populate the tournament draws. The championship draws will be posted on this website and on Club Locker later today.
Trinity College’s Lady Bantams carry an undefeated record into the championships looking for their first Howe Cup title since 2014. That Trinity team was the last team other than Harvard to win the Women’s Team National Championship. Harvard, the 2-seed this season, is on the hunt for their eighth straight Howe Cup championship.
After clinching a Top-8 position on Friday evening against Penn’s women, Virginia caused some reshuffling within the top eight teams with an upset win over Cornell on Sunday.
The final NESCAC Women’s Championship results also led to some reorganization of the standings order around spots 13 through 17, with Williams and Bowdoin each benefitting by one spot.
Brown University’s men’s and women’s club teams are the top seeds heading into the National Collegiate Club Team Championships held at the Arlen Specter US Squash Center starting on Friday. Most of the matches among the 28 men’s and co-ed teams and 11 women’s teams will take place on Saturday and Sunday this weekend.
Chasing Brown on the women’s side will be Boston College and University of Chicago’s inaugural women’s team. George Washington University and Georgetown University are two squads eager to try to unseat Brown in the Men’s Club A Division bracket.
