Shomari Wiltshire displays class in Thursday action at Farfan & Mendes Squash tourney
It was the second night of play on Thursday for the Farfan and Mendes Junior Skill Level Squash Tournament at the Georgetown Club Camp Street.
Shomari Wiltshire
Samuel Ince-Caravhal plays off the glass in a previous match against Gianna Carpenter.
Long standing champion Shomari Wiltshire did not disappoint in his first match up of the competition against Nicholas Verwey. With a dominant first game, Wiltshire stamped his authority. Despite Verwey rallying it out with some outstanding retrieval during long rallies, and executing perfect drops to increase his points progressively in each game, Wiltshire was on form. His precise execution and well timed shot selection was too much for Verwey and Wiltshire took the match comfortably 11/2, 11/4, 11/6.
The battle of the lefties with Gianni Carpenter and Samuel Ince-Carvalhal saw a smooth start for Ince-Carvalhal who moved out ahead 11/2, 11/3 with a consistent confident game. Carpenter came out fighting in the third and pushed hard to earn 10/10 then 11/11 before Ince-Carvalhal closed off the match 13/11 for the three straight win.
Mohryan Baksh played a solid match against Lucas Jonas with good lengths and tight play. Baksh played a patient and calculated game putting the ball away at opportune moments. Jonas worked hard but was no match for Baksh’s well thought out game plan for a 11/4, 11/5, 11/5 triumph.
Brenno DaSilva continued his winning streak with an impressive game against Rylee Rodrigues, securing a 11/9, 11/6 victory. Also unbeaten after two matches are Shiloh Asregado, Abhinav Singh and Tiana Gomes.
Matches will continued last evening with more play set for this evening and final games tomorrow from 11am.
