  • Columbia University is one of the world's great schools, and their squash teams are quickly improving. Little known is the complex relationship it is has with Barnard College
    • Since admissions for women to Barnard are more forgiving, several athletes who may not get into Columbia may find an easier path through Barnard's admission office. But their degree will be a Columbia degree, and they can play on Columbia's sports team.  
  • Happy 5th anniversary to Perth, Australia's The Squash Factory
