Princetonians and those connected with the Princeton squash programs were well represented on Saturday at the induction of the US Squash Hall of Fame's Class of 2022.
In an event at the Arlen Specter US Squash Center in Philadelphia, three of the four honorees had Princeton ties, including Princeton women's squash coach Gail Ramsay and alumni Nancy Gengler-Saint '80 and Tom Page '80.
Ramsay is the third person to serve as a head coach at Princeton and earn enshrinement in the US Squash Hall of Fame, along with Bob Callahan (2011), who led Princeton's men's team to three national and 11 Ivy League titles during 32 years as head coach, including 18 with Ramsay as a colleague, and Betty Constable (2000), the Princeton women's program's first coach and the winner of 12 team national and two Ivy titles from 1971-91.
Since taking over at Princeton in 1995, Ramsay has led the Tigers to four team national championships, four Ivy League championships, and three players to five individual national championships. For the past 20 years, when the top collegiate players compete for that individual national title, they are playing in the Ramsay Draw and for the Ramsay Cup, named after Princeton's coach and a four-time national champion during her collegiate career at Penn State. Ramsay's teams have won 276 dual matches in her time at Princeton, long ago making her Princeton's winningest women's squash coach.
Gengler-Saint, the 1976 national champion, was a two-time All-Ivy League honoree in 1979 and 1980, and Page was an All-America honoree in 1978, earning All-Ivy recognition in 1976 and 1978.
