A Tired Team
After their five-and-a-half hour road trip on Friday, the Martlets can't be faulted for playing a bit tired. Too bad, too, because this match against Choate could have been much closer than the final 1-7 result. The only Martlet to win a match was Jay Henry '23 at No. 8. After winning the first game 11-7, Henry lost the next two games 7-11 and 8-11. Instead of giving up, Henry dug in his heels and won the final two games of the match, both in extra points, 13-11 and 12-10. Most impressive of all is the fact that Henry fought off three match balls in the fifth game before hustling his way to victory. For his gritty effort, Henry earns the nail for this contest. Other high points include the gutsy determination of Gabe Lugo '23 at No. 3 who, after falling behind 0-2 and opening a cut on his knee, won the third game of his match 11-8 and nearly won the fourth game, narrowly falling by a 9-11 score. Quoc Anh Truong '20 also pushed his opponent to four games in typical Truong fashion by flinging his body all over the court in his effort to refuse to let balls go down. As the season winds down, coach Michael Cervas hopes the boys will focus all of their efforts in practice on becoming the best squash players they can be, getting the most out of every minute on the courts.
