Menlo School junior Gabriel Morgan is one of five players selected by U.S. Squash to play for Team USA at this summer’s World Junior Squash Championships held in Eindhoven, Holland, this summer.

Morgan was also named a United States Squash All-American, which recognizes players who have reached the highest level in junior tournaments or high school league play. 

The World Junior Championships begin with the annual men’s and women’s World Junior Individual Championships July 26-30. 

Morgan, along with Sean Hughes and Spencer Lovejoy, are competing in their first world junior competitions. They join Timmy Brownell and Max Reed, two members of the 2014 junior men’s team.

“The Team USA junior men’s team have improved steadily over the last few years, and this year is no exception,” Head coach Adam Hamill said. “Everyone on the team has extensive experience playing internationally, including the two returning players from last year’s world championships in Namibia.

“With some very strong international performances in the last twelve months, I am hopeful the U.S. players will be seeded appropriately. With the depth of talent and passion we have on the team, we are excited about possibilities. As always, the goal is to continue to focus on improving our games and learning from every situation.”
