0

Princeton, NJ — After two competitive semifinals, the C Division finals are set. The play-in matches for the E Division are complete.

A Division (Howe Cup):  The Howe Cup semifinals are scheduled for this afternoon. The consolation  semifinals are currently underway.

B Division (Kurtz Cup): Today’s B Division matches are scheduled for this afternoon.

C Division (Walker Cup): The Walker Cup got off to an early start this morning. The first team to advance to the C Division final was Franklin & Marshall. The Diplomats, who were seeded second in the division coming into the tournament, defeated St. Lawrence 6-3. The other semifinal was even more competitive. A year ago, Bowdoin pulled off a string of 5-4 upsets to win the C title. For a moment, it looked like the Polar Bears were going to recapture last year’s momentum. Bowdoin and top-seeded Amherst were tied 4-all going into the number four match between the Polar Bears’ Alden Drake and the Jeffs’ Tiana Palmer-Poroner. Drake roared out to a 2-0 lead, but Palmer-Poroner battled back to win 11-7 in the fifth. Amherst and F&M will play for the Walker Cup tomorrow. In the consolation semifinals, Wesleyan handed Colby a 0-9 loss.

D Division (Epps Cup):  The Epps Cup matches are being played in the early afternoon.

E Division: The final play-in match was completed this morning. Minnesota opened strong with an 8-1 win over California. Other E Division matches began in the late morning.

Princeton, NJ — There was high drama in Princeton on the first day of the 2014 Women’s National Team Championships.

A Division (Howe Cup): The Yale-Princeton match went down to the wire. The Bulldogs were seeded fourth coming into the tournament, but the fifth-seeded Tigers had home court advantage. The score was tied 4-all coming into the final match, the #7 contest between Lilly Fast of Yale and Alex Sawin of Princeton. Fast and Sawin, both senior captains, battled through five close games. Fast came out on top, and her 11-7 win in the fifth put Yale into the semifinals. The Bulldogs will face defending national champions Harvard tomorrow, and Trinity will take on Penn.

B Division (Kurtz Cup): Columbia, the top seed in the Kurtz Cup, marched into the semifinals with a 9-0 win over Hamilton. The Lions won all but one match by a score of 3-0. Brown secured a spot in the semis with a 7-2 win over Williams, and George Washington took down Middlebury 6-3 for a semifinal berth of their own. The Bears will play the Colonials tomorrow, and Columbia and Bates will square off.

C Division (Walker Cup):  Earlier in the day, Amherst, Franklin & Marshall, Bowdoin, and St. Lawrence all advanced to the semifinals. Amherst will play Bowdoin tomorrow, and F&M will play St. Lawrence.

D Division (Epps Cup):  The match-ups for tomorrow’s semifinals will be Tufts-Virginia and William Smith-Boston College.

E Division: The E Division opened with play-in matches as teams competed for spots in the main draw. The Rochester Yellowjackets proved they deserve a spot in the main draw with a convincing 9-0 win over Notre Dame. Washington University in St. Louis likewise locked down their place in the quarterfinals by defeating Northwestern 6-3. Haverford, NYU, Colgate, Smith, and Northeastern all had byes and will start their bids for the E title tomorrow. In the quarters, NYU will play Smith, Colgate will play Rochester, and Northeastern will play Rochester. Top-seeded Haverford will face either California or Minnesota; the California-Minnesota play-in match has been rescheduled due to travel delays.

2014 Women’s College Squash Richey Award Finalists

0

Northampton, MA — The Richey Award is given annually to the women’s college squash player who best exemplifies the ideals of squash in her love of and devotion to the game, her strong sense of fairness, and her excellence of play and leadership.

Coaches consult with their teams and vote on the candidates at the Women’s National Team Championships. Each school has two votes: a team vote and a coach’s vote.

This year, there were many talented nominees. The Executive Committee selected the three finalists for the Richey Award (listed alphabetically; click on the athletes’ names below to see photos and videos of them playing):

Libby Eyre (Princeton University): Princeton’s captain Libby Eyre is a psychology major who is well known for intense focus. Despite numerous injuries, Eyre, a top-three players throughout her Princeton career, has never slowed down. She has gained numerous Ivy League honors, including being named to the All-Ivy League squad in 2012 and 2013. During the 2012 – 2013 season, she helped the Tigers complete an undefeated regular season and earn the Ivy League title.  The CSA recognized Eyre by twice naming her a First Team All-American (2012 and 2013) and once a Second Team All-American (2011). According to Princeton coach Gail Ramsay, “Libby has always conducted herself impeccably on the court as a model of fair play while remaining a truly fierce and tough competitor.”

Catalina Pelaez (Trinity College): Upon arriving at Trinity four years ago, Catalina Pelaez made an immediate impact. She has been a staple in one of the top two positions in the Bantams’ line-up throughout her career, which includes four NESCAC team championships. The studio art major (minoring in both Italian and architecture studies) has amassed numerous NESCAC honors, including Rookie of the Year (2011), Player of the Year (2011 and 2012),  First Team All-NESCAC (2011, 2012, and 2013), and All-Sportsmanship Team member (2013). Pelaez, a two-time captain, has earned First Team All-American honors three times (2011, 2012, and 2013). “Whether she is winning or losing, Cata shows fairness and grace. Throughout the past four years, Cata has been driven to be one of the best intercollegiate squash players, and at the same time be an outstanding role model,” states Trinity coach Wendy Bartlett.

Millie Tomlinson (Yale University): During her first year at Yale, Millie Tomlinson won the Ramsay Cup (individual championship). The next season, she came just short of repeating and finished second in the nation. During her collegiate career, Tomlinson has been in the hunt for a team or individual title each season. She helped Yale capture the Ivy League title and national championship in 2011.  Individually, she has been named to the First Team All-America and All-Ivy League team three times (2011, 2012, and 2013). She was also named the Ivy League Rookie of the Year in 2011. The political science major is actively involved in SquashHaven. According to Yale coach Dave Talbott, “One of the most impressive characteristics of Millie is her humility.  Everyone who comes in contact with Millie is struck by this part of her personality.  The way she plays the game and presents herself on court is a parallel for the way she acts and represents herself off the court. “
