The Girls Varsity Squash team put together a competitive and resilient season, highlighted by strong performances against some of the top programs in the country. The team opened the season with a 5th place finish at the Mercersburg Tom Flanagan Invitational, playing high-quality squash against a deep and challenging field. Although the annual Midwest Ashes Tournament was unfortunately canceled due to weather, the team maintained its momentum and delivered a solid showing in Buffalo.
At the U.S. High School Nationals, competing in Division IV, the team battled through a series of tightly contested matches that showcased their grit and determination. A standout moment came with an impressive victory over Blair Academy. First-year Annie Amos ’29 and sophomore Elizabeth Woltz ’28 were exceptional at the 6 and 7 positions, respectively, both finishing the tournament undefeated. The team’s final match, the consolation playoff, was ultimately canceled due to a winter storm in Philadelphia.
Congratulations to Charlotte Medler ’26, who was named Women’s St. Louis Player of the Year by the Spirit of St. Louis Squash Foundation.
The team was led by senior tri-captains Alexa Davis ’26, Shivani Pandey ’26, and Medler, whose leadership and commitment set the tone all season. The program also celebrates the contributions of its graduating seniors: Siboney Oviedo-Gray ’26, Aiyla Ahmad ’26, Taylor Nuzum ’26, and manager Aaheli Arora ’26, who have all played important roles in the team’s success and culture. The team wishes them all the best as they move forward in their journey.
With a strong core returning and valuable experience gained throughout the season, the team looks forward to continued growth and success next season.
