The weekend of 23rd – 25th of January saw the Mount Pleasant Open 2015 take place. There were 88 entries in 6 events with 4 mens sections and 2 womens. There was some super squash over the weekend with the highlight being the men’s semi’s on Saturday evening with Derek Ryan overcoming Keith Moran and Michael Craig beating Steve Richardson. Michael was 9-2 down in the 3rd but came back to reel of 9 points in a row to win the match 3-0.
In the Womens final Ciara Moloney had a good win over Griffin Gillanders winning 3-0 and in the men’s final we had a super
match. Derek went 1 up winning the first game 11-8, Michael came back to win the next 2 games 11-2 & 11-7. When it looked as if Derek was gone he came storming back to win the 4th, 11-9 in a cracking game. Michael won the 5th 11-4 to close out a great final between the young pretender and the maestro.
In the other sections Michael Conroy and Conor O’Shea came through the A/B play offs. A recent resident to Dublin from Hong Kong Julie Savoie won the women’s B section. Julie has just moved to Dublin and this was her first experience of Irish Squash.
In the Men’s C section Old Belvedere’s Colm Dolan beat Peter birch from Mt. Pleasant 3-0. But in the D section we saw a super match with little and large. The 6′ 2″ Shane O’Brien played the 10 year old Denis Gilevskiy in a classic. Denis won 10-12, 11-8, 11-9, 7-11 & 12-10. The 5th game was nip and tuck where either player could have won.

The highest result was a super 3rd place for Stephanie Ryan in the U17’s event. She lost only 1 match on the way to 3rd. She lost 
only one of five matches, losing only to the No:1 seed Nadiya Usenko from Ukraine. She won her 3 / 4 play-off in an epic five game match that finished 14/12 in the fifth against Czech’s Kristýna Fialová. Kristýna was playing to a home crowd but was drowned out by the support of the Irish Squash players who rallied around to cheer her on.
The other high place finishes were Scott Gillanders who came 4th in the boys U/15, he lost a tight semi final to the eventual winner Viktor Byrtus. Oisin Dunne came 5th in the Boys U/17, where again he lost to the eventual winner Roman Allinckx. He then won the 5-8th place play off.
Conor Moran came 7th in the U15’s which is a super result as Conor is still only 13yrs. Other top 10 results were: Luke Logan came 10th in the U17’s, Sam Buckley 9th in the U13,s again only 13yrs. All the other players had a good tournament with much experience gained.
