M., W. Squash Have Ivy Title Hopes Dashed by Tigers at Murr Center

Despite the loss, Bawja seemed satisfied with the Crimson's effort.

"If we had played like this against Trinity, we would have won," he said, alluding to a 7-2 loss to Trinity a week earlier.

A scary moment came whencaptain No. 5 Blair Endresen sustained a sharp blow to the head from Penn junior Lauren Patrizio's racquet.

Endresen left the courts for several minutes, but returned and finished the match, even though Penn had already clinched the overall victory.

"It says a lot about her, that she decided to finish the game," Bajwa

said. "She's been a great captain. Tim has grown much as a player, and Eric has been a great role model, but Blair has had to do her job by herself. She's done a very good job."

The next day, the top of the Crimson women's order was still unable to come up big. Wins by Brown, Holland, Gregory and freshman No. 7 Lindsay Coleman were not enough to carry the Crimson. Freshman No. 4 Ella Witcher, ill for much of the weekend, took her first two games, but ultimately lost three straight games to Princeton senior Liz Kelly.
