Squash Team Wins Two on the Road And Adds a Cornell Forfeit at Home

The Harvard squash team ended the toughest weekend on its schedule by picking up an easy forfeit victory from Cornell yesterday afternoon. When the Big Red squad failed to show the Crimson picked up its third win in as many days.

Friday's 7-2 win over Navy and Saturday's 8-1 victory over Princeton didn't come so easy. Six out of the nine matches at Navy were close, though the Crimson eventually took the top of the Navy ladder, sweeping the first five matches.

At Navy Crimson number-one man Peter Briggs trounced his opponent Randy Fisher in three straight games; and numbers three and four men Glen Whitman and Neil Vosters also took 3-0 victories. But an ailing Andy Wiegand, at the number two slot, was extended to five games by Navy's Craig Dawson, before he took the match 11-15, 15-8, 8-15, 15-9, 15-12.

"Wiegand was sick that night...he really came through," Crimson coach Jack Barnaby said yesterday. "He really gutted it out."

Barnably Pleased

Barnaby was pleased with his team's performance in both the weekend matches. At Navy, he said, "All our fellows rose to the pressure and kept their cool, especially the sophomores. The noise from the Navy gallery didn't throw them off."

"But the boys played better at Princeton than they played at Navy. The courts are more like ours there," he said.

Vosters dropped his match, 3-2, to David Paige, but he was the only Crimson player to lose.
