T&T's mixed dou­bles team of An­tho­ny Al­lum and Sigour­ney Williams had a win-and-loss record on Wednes­day that saw them reach the semi­fi­nals of the Caribbean Area Squash As­so­ci­a­tion Cham­pi­onships in the British Vir­gin Is­lands be­fore be­ing boot­ed out.

Williams, in her last hooray at the cham­pi­onships, com­bined with Al­lum to form an al­most un­stop­pable duo. How­ev­er, in the open­ing quar­ter­fi­nal match, the T&T pair was made to come from be­hind, as they went down to the team of Brady Holmes and Mehar Tre­han of Ja­maica in the first set 11-6.

There­after, it was all the team in red, white, and black, pro­duc­ing a bat­tling per­for­mance to lev­el the scores 11-9. Lat­er, they de­liv­ered an iden­ti­cal 11-9 tri­umph to seal the win that took them to the semi­fi­nals where they faced the pair of Do­minic Wil­son and Sar­rayah Year­wood of Bar­ba­dos.

This time though, they were swept aside in straight sets 11-2, 11-7 to make their ex­it from the tour­na­ment.

Ear­li­er in the men's dou­bles, T&T's team of Seth Thong and Nicholas Lequay failed to get out of the blocks, fac­ing the Bar­ba­dos team of Aidan Paris and Alex Stew­art in the pre­lim­i­nary round. But that was not their day on the courts and they sur­ren­dered af­ter two sets to the Ba­jans 11-2, 11-6.

Al­so, the team girls' team of Josie Thong and Maya Fran­cois strug­gled in their open­ing match to the Bermu­dan team of Tyler Kom­posch and Gabrielle Turchiaro, los­ing in their first ap­pear­ance on the court 11-5, 11-4.

Ac­tion in the tour­na­ment con­tin­ues to­day with bat­tles in the teams' cat­e­gories.
