The NISRA Individual Championships will be held this weekend at Williams College. Harvard will send seven players to compete in the field of sixty-four.
Harvard 6, Princeton 3
"This was a great success," Wyant said. "Losing the Ivy League was very disappointing, and it was great that we redeemed ourselves."
Perhaps the most impressive victory came from co-captain Eric Lauer. Kept out of the top nine for much of the year due to Harvard's youthful depth, Lauer returned to the lineup due to Merrill's injury. He came back from a 2-1 deficit to defeat Princeton No. 9 Randolph McEvoy 3-2 (10-15, 17-15, 10-15, 15-12, 15-13).
"It was a great feeling," Lauer said afterwards. "And it was a great way for me to end my Harvard squash career."
"Eric was great," Wyant said. "Coming back the way he did, he played his heart out. We won because people played the way he did."
