This weekend Harvard’s squash teams will face Princeton on Saturday and Penn on Sunday at the Murr Center.
Both of the women’s matches are expected to be very close: In 2013, Princeton was able to squeeze by during the regular season with a 5-4 win but The Crimson eventually won the national title. At this year’s IVY Scrimmages Princeton beat Harvard 5-4. Also, the Penn women are looking particularly strong this year after some talented recruits have joined their squad. All three teams are contenders for both the IVY- and national titles this season.
The men will have to play well too as The Crimson split the IVY title with The Tigers last year. At this year’s Scrimmages, Princeton fell against Yale in the semis while Harvard beat The Bulldogs in the final. The Princeton match is expected to be the toughest match so far this season for the men’s team. Penn’s men’s team is always strong and will challenge The Crimson at every position of the ladder.
We hope to see you during the weekend! If you can’t make it, look out for updates both on www.gocrimson.com and on the blog www.harvardsquash.blogspot.com.
Go Crimson!
