GENEVA, N.Y.—Twenty-four hours after leading the Hobart squash team to the inaugural Upstate Collegiate Athletic Association Championship, junior Tejvir Rathore (Daly College/Indore, India) and Prateek Patni (Daly College/Indore, India) were named the UCAA Performer and Rookie of the Week, respectively.

The Statesmen, ranked 13th in the latest College Squash Association rankings, nearly white-washed the competition over the weekend, defeating No. 23 St. Lawrence, No. 20 Rochester, and Vassar by identical 9-0 scores, while only Hamilton managed to steal a point, falling to Hobart 8-1.

For their part, both Rathore and Patni, playing at No. 1 and No. 2, respectively, cruised through the field, winning a combined eight matches all by 3-0 counts.

The Statesmen are back in action at 6 p.m., on Dec. 3, at Rochester.
