Men’s and women’s squash prep for trip to Cornell

The Harvard men’s and women’s squash teams venture to upstate New York this weekend for clashes with Ivy League rival Cornell.

Both matches get started at 10 a.m. tomorrow morning in Ithaca.

The squads are both coming off of impressive season-opening demolitions of Dartmouth last weekend. The men easily dispatched the Big Green, sweeping every pairing in a 9-0 romp. The Crimson dropped only two sets at all nine positions, led by No. 1 Siddharth Suchde, who cruised past Todd Wood, 3-0 (9-1, 9-3, 9-2).

The women’s victory was nearly as decisive. The Harvard women bested Dartmouth, 8-1, with freshman Johanna Snyder the only victim, playing in the No. 7 slot.

The teams will take a two-plus-month hiatus from competition following the match, returning to action Feb. 7.
