End of Day 1, Round of 32 completed

Welcome to the Pan AM Jr squash Championships!   

In the end we had 5 athletes make it through the round of 32.  This is a tough tournament.  For most of the players travelling to this event from South America this is the biggest event they will get to.  They are here to play every match like it is there last, their team cheers loudly and aggressively for every point they win.  They cheer if they hit a winner, they cheer if you hit a tin, it is passionate and loud.  Get into the spirit of the competition.

After a long first day of highs and lows, crazy come from behind wins, we need to some super.  After the opening ceremonies we walked over to the University of Penn campus and found a BBQ restaurant and indulged in a hearty meal of ribs, pulled pork, brisket, with some classic sides like, baked beans and some good old fashion corn bread...mmmm good
