Williamses squash their rivals

It's well known in sporting circles that UCT staffers are enthusiastic squash players.

But apparently those players surnamed Williams who are also affiliated to UCT Libraries rule the roost.

Take the recent staff squash tournament hosted by Karl Buckton of Sport and Recreation.

At the end of the three-week competition, it was Johnathan and Russel Williams - no relation, as far as we could determine, but both of the Chancellor Oppenheimer Library - who walked off with the silverware.

Johnathan took on Sean Sivertsen of Academic Administration in the gold section final, winning 2-0.

In the bronze section, Russel got the better - by 2-0 as well - of Carl Herman, director of the Admissions Office and a late replacement for Student System and Support's Jeffrey Thurtell, who had to pull out of the competition.
