"I think he's a very understated personality," Crimson Co-Captain Jack Polsky said. "He's very efficient on the court. He epitomizes gentlemen's squash."
This February, Pandole played Franklin and Marshall's Yogesh Panchal, a friend from India, for the first time in four years. After their match, what did Panchal say to his long-time friend? Panchal told Pandole that he was going to steal his sweats.
Did Pandole believe him? "I hid them," he said, joking.
Pandole will turn pro after the six-man championship in early March and will try to qualify for some pro tournaments--after he finishes his thesis.
"I will play for only a couple of years at most, then I will go to business school and get a real job some day," Pandole said.
He has two goals left for his team: to beat Yale tomorrow and to win the six-man championship in early March.
