Hartford, Conn. - Winners of their last four and off to their best start since 1985-86, the University of Pennsylvania men's squash team faced their toughest challenge yet on Saturday as they took on top-ranked Trinity on the road. Missing four of their usual starters, the Quakers fell 9-0 to the Bantams. 

Freshman Andrew Douglas lost his first match of his collegiate career as he fell in straight games to Kush Kumar. Douglas was one of seven Quakers to lose 3-0.

Also losing the first match of his collegiate career was sophomore Wil Hagen. Hagen was 11-0 in his two seasons at Penn before losing at number six, 11-5, 11-4, 11-3.
