"Of those eight matches we lost, all of them were very close matches," Bajwa said. "Wyant and [No. 6, sophomore] Peter Karlen have beaten Trinity players. With the new freshmen, we're stronger. I think those matches can be turned around."
Trinity, with its strong recruiting last year, was able to give the Crimson a tremendous challenge for the first time.
"I think that last year, there was an aura surrounding the Trinity recruits," Bajwa said. "But the hesitation is no longer there, having played them last year."
Bajwa's experience and knowledge about the game of squash will certainly be a great boon to the Crimson.
"I am familiar with about half of the Trinity players from my past experience," Bajwa said. "So hopefully we can have better insight in how to play them."
Harvard has the utmost confidence it can beat Trinity. The Crimson has only lost one starter, Dave Beitchman '99. With its incredibly strong freshman class, the team is bound to improve.
"We have three great freshmen this year," Wyant said. "It really raises the bar for our team."
