Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) continued their winning streak in the National School Games B Division boys' squash as they defeated St Andrew's Secondary School 4-1 in the final at Kallang Squash Centre on April 30.

In a repeat of last season's final where they prevailed 5-0, ACS (I) subdued a spirited effort from St Andrew's to clinch their fifth straight boys' B title.

Evan Shee put ACS (I) in control in the opening match, but not without some effort, as he overcame the pressure to beat Lee Zheng Zhe 11-4, 11-5, 11-9.

"The first game was very important, especially when it would have really given the whole team a confidence boost. There's definitely a lot of pressure because it can make a difference," said Evan.

Although he went behind on several occasions, the 15-year-old demonstrated great resilience to come back and win his match.

"I trained almost every day," said Evan, who is part of Singapore's national squash team.
