No. 2 Princeton To Tangle With No. 3 Trinity, No. 5 Yale
February 01, 2024 | Men's Squash
Newly ranked No. 2 in the nation, the Princeton men's squash team will head to No. 3 Trinity and No. 5 Yale this weekend as the season heads toward its crescendo later this month.

At 7-0 overall and 4-0 in the Ivy League, the Tigers will put their best overall and Ivy League start since 2013 on the line. Princeton started 9-0 overall and 5-0 that year en route to their last Ivy title and a third-place CSA team finish, and a sweep this weekend would equal that start.
Princeton split meetings last year with Trinity, winning 7-2 in the regular season before the Bantams won 5-3 in the quarterfinals of the CSA team tournament. Against Yale, Princeton won last year's match 5-4 after Yale swept two meetings in 2022-23.
Trinity is 11-0 on the season, and the three matches that the Bantams didn't win 9-0 have come in the last three matches, against then-No. 4 Harvard, 6-3, then-No. 6 Cornell, 7-2, and then-No. 7 Columbia, 5-4. The Bulldogs are 7-1 overall, 4-1 in the Ivy and have won three straight since the team's first loss of the season, at Harvard on Jan. 19.
The Tigers will see a familiar face in Trinity coach Moustafa Hamada, who was a Princeton assistant coach from 2018-23 before taking over the top post at his alma mater ahead of this season.
Following the Connecticut weekend, Princeton will return home for its final match in the more than a half-century history of Jadwin Gym, hosting current No. 1 Penn on Feb. 10.
