About BikeWorks:

The Men’s and Women’s Squash teams both competed at Nationals during the past two weeks.

The men finished 2-1, after moving up 2 divisions from last year.  They lost to Bucknell but beat the University of Washington in the battle of the Washington’s 6-3 and Kenyon College 5-4 in the Consolation Finals.  The results from the season and the tournament can be seen here: http://www.ussquash.com/ssm/pages/leagues/Team_Information.asp?id=5823

The women competed in their first nationals and received their first win against the University of California Berkeley 3-2.  The College Squash Association wrote: “Washington University in St. Louis and the University of California Berkeley played this morning in the Emerging Teams round robin. The 3-2 decision gave Wash U the program’s first-ever win at the Women’s National Team Championships.”

Hello SCB Representatives,

As some of you may or may not know, Luke Shapiro is putting together a website for SCB and the website will be featuring each club, with details for those who are potentially interested in your club.

Luke would like each president to send him the following items

• A picture
• Club’s Season
• Commitment Level
• Description
• Club’s Website (if you have one)
• President’s Name
• Treasurer’s Name
• Contact information

Please email this information to Luke at lucas.shapiro@wustl.edu Please do NOT send me (Chris) this information, as I will be able to do nothing with it. If you would like to see an example of what your page on the SCB website will look like please check out scb.wustl.edu and look at Squash’s webpage, as it has already been completed.

Thank you everyone!

Chris and Luke
