The CSA National Team Championships are in the books and the women of Trinity College, and Gilly's men of the University of Pennsylvania each hoisted their respective trophies this Sunday at the home of this years competition, the Arlen Specter Center. Gilly and Jackson will breakdown the exciting National Championship weekend next week live in person when the gents are back at Specter for the Individual National Championship competition, but, in the meantime, congrats to Gilly and his boys, as well as Wendy Bartlett and the Trinity women on amazing seasons.
This week's show features 2 amazing interviews conducted last week that we haven't been able to upload until now, but still think are enthralling and wanted to share with all of you.
First, the guys were joined by CSA All-American and University of Rochester #1, from India, Yash Fadte. Yash joined us days after his team won the Hoehn Cup, the second division in men’s college squash, to finish 13th in the country. Yash was fantastic and extremely candid about the roller-coaster of a season he's had with U of R this season, which ultimately ended on a high note and Hoehn Cup victory.
Next was Columbia head men's and women's coach Chris Sachvie. Gilly and Chris reminisced about their first ever match, Gilly a senior for Penn at the time, playing Chris, a freshman at Cornell, and the, perhaps overly lively home crowd in attendance in Philly. Chris also spoke about his men’s and women’s teams, their seasons thus far, and preparing for the Nationals competition last weekend.
Fun episode this week. Huge thanks to Yash and Chris and, once again, huge congrats to Trinity and Penn, our brand new CSA National Champions. Enjoy!
