Had a fantastic time watching the Trinity Yale squash match at Yale and thoroughly enjoyed watching the Yale lightweight men and Yale women practice indoors. What really struck me about watching the squash matches were the players' mental approaches to the game. The top players from both schools were obviously very high caliber, physically prepared, creative, and well-prepared...but it surprised me how often they emotionally reacted to a hard let call, a missed shot, or an aggressive winner.How amazing could it be to play against an opponent and only think about playing the next shot as best as you possibly could regardless of the score or situation? Isn't that an approach that would reward you over time? I hope at some point all of you will get the chance to watch some squash and see these athletes compete.
