LAKE FOREST SQUASH CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS    
Singh Beats Nau in Close Five Game Club Championship Final at Lake Forest Squash
 
Rahul Singh narrowly beat Bill Nau to capture the final win in the "A" division 2008 club championships in a close five game match (9-4, 9-5, 6-9, 3-9, 4-9).   The final pitted two past championship players from differing decades who have gotten back into the game after a hiatus.
 
Rahul Singh played in the British Junior Open in 1996 and was runner up in the Hong Kong Junior Open in the under-16 division in 1995.  He was recruited to play for Colby College and graduated in 2003. 
 
Forty-six year old Bill Nau played for Williams College in the 1980's gaining All American status in his final year.  He is known for his racquet skills in tennis and paddle tennis as well.  Nau successfully transitioned from the hardball version of the game to softball over the past two years by training at Lake Forest Squash.  Hardball was played in the United States up until 1995 when a conversion was made to the internationally known version of softball squash.  Singh, having grown up in India, has always played softball.
 
Both Lake Forest Squash players competed on the 2007 USSRA National Championships Team that took finalist honors at Yale this December.  Singh played #2 and Nau #3 in the line-up.  Nau has never beaten Singh losing to him in four games in the 2007 Lake Forest Open held during the Thanksgiving break.
