On Tuesday, the College Squash Association (CSA) updated the men’s varsity team rankings for the final time leading up to the National Collegiate Men’s Team Championships held this weekend at Trinity College and Wesleyan University. The women’s varsity team rankings and all of the club team rankings are also now final after a thrilling weekend of championship matches this past weekend.
A few completed men’s matches from this past weekend finalize the rankings picture for the national championships. Without a head-to-head result, Virginia stays ahead of Trinity thanks to the Cavaliers’ second win over Drexel in the MASC Conference Championship. Despite MIT’s win over Franklin & Marshall in that same event, MIT’s subsequent loss to St. Lawrence dropped the Engineers into 17th position.
The top seeds for the Men’s Team Championships are as follows:
- Potter Division (Teams 1-8): Harvard University
- Hoehn Division (Teams 9-16): Columbia University
- Summers Division (Teams 17-24): MIT
- Conroy Division (Teams 25-34): Bowdoin College
The final results from the championship events from this past weekend inform the final team rankings for the women’s varsity teams and the club teams. Congratulations to all of the division winners!:
- Howe Cup – National Championship: Harvard University
- Kurtz Cup – varsity B Division: University of Pennsylvania
- Walker Cup – varsity C Division: Middlebury College
