Men's Squash Continues Rebuild With Five Highly Touted Newcomers
October 13, 2015 | Men's Squash
Head coach Sean Wilkinson knows that he is building the foundation of his program during these early years, and he is excited to see what the five members of the Class of 2019 can add to both the present and future.
Wilkinson understands the challenges of replacing four of the top five players at the top of your lineup, especially when two of them are multiple-time All-Americans in Samuel Kang and Tyler Osborne. He is glad to have Osborne stay on campus to serve as assistant coach and help mentor a group that could quickly become fixtures in the varsity lineup.
