Thwack!

Last week, I had the pleasure of watching squash played for the first time. Wesleyan's women's varsity team defeated Colby's, 5-4. (Woo woo!) The most pleasurable thing of standing in a full squash center, where other matches were also happening simultaneously, was the constant thwack of the small black ball, ricocheting off every possible wall. For such a patrician sport, there's also something thrilling and gritty about it -- all that constant motion, jostling and sound.

Thanks to the Cardinal.
