Agnes Irwin squash team wins Inter-Ac title
The Agnes Irwin varsity squash team captured the Inter-Ac title Tuesday with a 8-1 win over Penn Charter.
Playing in front of a large crowd, host Agnes Irwin secured key wins in the #5 and #2 match ups, with senior captain Lily Zelov defeating Gwen Davis in a competitive match. AIS captured the first eight matches to be completed.
AIS coach Alex Stait said, “The girls did well to keep their concentration today against a strong Penn Charter team. Winning the Inter-Ac has been a goal of ours for several years, and the it’s strongest league in the country with 2-3 teams consistently ranked in the top five in the U.S. It’s nice to see the girls get this result after playing and working together for so many years. I feel the real difference this year is our team spirit, which helped us upset the odds and stay together through tough matches.”
