College squash returned to action last week following the winter holidays, with Week 5 marking the start of the second half of the season. It was a slower restart, with only 13 matches played between January 2-8, but the competition delivered plenty of excitement. The schedule was largely dominated by NESCAC teams, with additional action from Navy vs. Western Ontario and St. Lawrence vs. Hobart and William Smith.

Close matches were a theme of the week, highlighted by Amherst men securing a narrow 5-4 victory over Bowdoin and Hamilton women edging Conn College 6-3. Connecticut College men pulled off the sole upset of the week, defeating Hamilton 5-4 in a hard-fought match. The St. Lawrence women also logged a strong 6-3 win over William Smith.

As teams shake off the winter break and return to form, fans can look forward to an exciting stretch of college squash in the coming weeks as the race to the championships heats up!
