Team USA jumps out to an impressive start on Day 2 in a "Reverse Test Match"
format where each team's #1's play the other team's #2's and #3's take on the #4's.  No doubt this can be a challenge for any seasoned squash player but the American Juniors quickly found their stride and did not lose a single Age Division across the board.
In the end, Team USA won overall 16-8 in matches and the score truly reflects the impressive collection of talent from these young players hailing from eight States across the U.S.  While today's matches are certainly a confidence booster it is not a determination of what can happen on Sunday's "Battle of the Border."  Team USA remains hungry breaking into Coaching sessions for the afternoon activities before heading off for a picnic in the park with the Canadian Team later tonight.
