PROVIDENCE, R.I. - The University of Pennsylvania men's squash team completed their weekend of Ivy League on Sunday by sweeping Brown and remaining undefeated. Penn improved to 8-0 for the first time since 1985-86 and will return back to Philadelphia next weekend.

How it Happened

The Quakers swept six of nine matches against the Bears. David Yacobucci, Karim Hussein, and Wil Hagen set the tone early for the Red and Blue. The trio won their matches, 3-0, to put Penn up by three points early. To wrap up the first shift, Aly Abou Eleinen came back after losing the opening game 11-2, to win the next three 12-10, 11-9, and 11-3. 

Freshman James Flynn clinched the match for the Quakers winning 3-0 at number four. Flynn was in control throughout winning 11-4, 11-6, 11-2. 

In a change at number nine, Max Reed filled in for fellow captain, Jonathan Zeitels. Reed also came through in three games winning a duo of 11-6 games with an 11-7 win in the middle. 

For a second straight match, Yash Bhargava pulled through in five. The sophomore advanced to 10-1 in five game matches in his career. Bharvgava won the opening two games and looked to be on his way to a sweep before falling in the next two. However, he bounced back in the fifth to take the decider, 11-6. 

What's Next

The Quakers will face one of their toughest challenges of the season in two weeks when they return to Philly. The Red and Blue will host No. 1 Trinity followed by No. 25 Colby at the Kline and Specter Squash Center.
