| It's absolutely great that the Goshen Open got some TV coverage from the local station, but that report used every single cliche of squash in the media. |

Not sure what else you would expect from a report that had never heard of the sport? 99% of the local viewers of that report would have never seen a squash court before, so taking that into consideration, I thought it was well done.
And special mention to Jim Wellington. It has to be said that to raise $17,000 for a WISPA tournament in a state with 2 courts, got tv coverage to boot, is nothing short of amazing. And to quote yet another cliche, "If he can do it, anyone can!" |
