2010 Spring Squash A League - Summary

Well the Spring Squash League historically is a very small event compared to the Winter Squash League. The key reason being of course is that many of the big guns do not play. This year Dan “I Just Want to Play Squash” Van Morsel chose not to play in the Spring League and is instead teaching some of Chatham’s inner city youth kids the finer points of concrete. Mike “Doc” Connelly feared that if he played in the Spring League he might fail his final exams on the female anatomy. And Tim “Behr” Majocha felt that his golf game was primed to break 100 this year before August.

Anyhow, the hard core squash players were in action last night. Andrew “Beavis” Caille was in pretty good form against Shaun “The Franchise” Guay despite the fact that Caille was late for his match. Apparently, Home Depot had a 5 o’clock special on Duct Tape. Caille jumped out to a two game lead before Guay settled down and struck back in the third game. The fourth game proved to be a tight hard fought game but Caille’s patent front corner boast started to frustrate Guay and allowed Caille to escape with a 3 -1 win.

Stefan “Young Gun” Houbtchev has been playing so well that he is destroying all the competition. In this Spring League, Stefan made the big jump into A3A and was looking to draw blood. Houbtchev unfortunately ran into the wily veteran Rod “Rocket” Larson. Larson wanted no part of being Houbtchev’s latest victim. Although Houbtchev played Larson tough and kept the games tight . Larson’s experience in tight games was the determining factor that allowed him to prevail to victory.

Kevin “Kentucky Fried Chicken” Furmanek fresh off his A1 Winter League Championship was looking to continue his winning ways against Andrew “Silk” Little. Furmanek was able to control the flow of the game and constantly kept Little under pressure. As a result, Furmanek prevailed to win but Doug Fields who was watching the match said that he would have handled Furmanek differently.
