Grunberg Wins National Title at US Masters Squash Championships

Carole Grunberg won the Women's 55+ and also won the consolation finals in the Women's 50+ division.  She was joined by a strong group of National Capital players who competed last month at the Masters Championships in Stamford CT.

Congratulations to the following players who reached the quarterfinals or won the consolations in their age division: Carole Grunberg -- Women 55+ Winner Women 50+ Consolation Winner

Bryce Harding -- Men 50+ quarter-finalist

Terry Hindermann -- Men 50+ quarter-finalist Bruce Simons-Morton -- Men 65+ Consolation Winner Carole had a tough five game match in the semifinals and then won another five game marathon match where she took game five by a 13-11 score to clinch the win. Bruce fell in the quarterfinals in a tight three game match to the eventual winner. This tournament is great fun, so if you are 35+ and haven't tried it yet, consider entering next year.
