Both the men’s and women’s teams were off to disappointing starts. At their first home squash weekend in early December, both teams lost decisively to both Princeton and Penn. One of the best performances came from Erin Andrews, ’07 who at first put up a strong fight against Princeton but then lost, 9–6, in the third game. It remains to be seen whether either squad can repeat its strong performances from last year, when the men’s team finished eleventh nationally, while the women’s team was ranked seventh.

Here’s hoping that all the teams and their fans will have more to cheer about in the second half of the season, when Ivy play begins.
