Men's Squash Earns Pair of Wins

On Friday, in the Crimson’s first game of the weekend, Harvard tore through the Bears’ lineup without dropping a single game, as each player on the Crimson ladder earned a 3-0 victory.

The match was once again decided early on, with freshman Thomas Mullaney notching the team’s fifth win at the No. 9 spot to secure the overall victory for Harvard.

Making his debut in a Crimson jersey, Power won his first college match against Brown’s Brad Thompson at the No. 1 spot.

Also playing in their first collegiate squash contests, McLaughlin and classmate Nigel Koh similarly dismantled their opponents at the No. 2 and No. 4 spots, respectively.

The veterans on the team, led by Endresen, also contributed to the first of two dominant victories for the Crimson.

“Coach has really been focusing on the individual and how they can add to the team as a whole,” Endresen said. “Everyone brings a lot of energy to this team, and this has really been a good aspect of practice [and matches].”

Though Harvard currently sits undefeated in regular-season play, the Crimson still has a long way to go if it hopes to achieve its season goals.

“I did see every player at least playing with the intention of making the changes [we’ve been working on] to their game, but there’s work to be done,” Way said. “Every coach is going to tell you no matter what their win-loss record is, there’s always work to be done.”
