Squash gets routed by defending natl. champs

The Dartmouth Squash teams suffered only their second losses of the season on Saturday as both teams were defeated 9-0 by the Trinity squash powerhouse.

The Big Green women fell 9-0 to a very talented Trinity squad. Trinity, last year's national champion, had a little too much for the lady squashers on Saturday, but the competition was fierce and intense throughout the match. The Dartmouth women are now 5-2 on the season.

The Big Green men were also blanked 9-0 by an extremely impressive Trinity team. Trinity's men's team is the nation's five-time defending squash champion, and so the Big Green had their work cut out for them on Saturday. In the end, Trinity's depth and talent just proved a bit too strong for the Big Green. The sqashers are now 6-2 on the year.

The Big Green men next take on Denison at Cornell on Friday, while the women will battle Cornell on Saturday.
