"In the two matches we lost, we lost somewhat decisively, but we put up a really good fight," Wyant said.
Being runner-up became the year's common theme after Wyant finished strong to reach the finals of the NISRA Individual Squash Championship on the weekend of March 5.
Wyant, the No. 9 seed in the tournament, defeated Cowie, the No. 1 seed, in a hard-fought quarterfinal match, 15-9, 15-7, 6-15 and 15-7.
In the semifinals, he faced No. 4 Bell and cruised to a 3-0 victory.
In the finals, Wyant drew No. 2 Peter Yik of Princeton, and his magical run would end there as he lost to Yik in three games.
"I was playing better at that time during the year than at any other time," Wyant said. "I didn't think I was really at the level of some of those top guys. I happened to have a good weekend and things sort of fell into place for me."
Despite the losses to Trinity, the Crimson's season was largely successful.
Harvard racked up its seventh straight Ivy title under Doyle's command, finishing the conference schedule with a 9-0 win over Yale on Feb. 17 that clinched the crown.
