Abdel-Maksoud, Alterki, and Oakley post victories against No. 8 Princeton

PRINCETON, NJ – After opening its 2018-19 season with a pair of sweeps, the George Washington men's squash team battled No. 6 Penn on Saturday and No. 8 Princeton on Sunday, but fell just short of upsetting the College Squash Association A-Division squads.

Despite dropping their match, 9-0, at Penn, Moudy Abdel-Maksoud, Mouhommad Alterki, and Jamie Oakley all posted victories for the Buff and Blue the next day at Princeton. Five Colonials pushed their matches to more than three games, but the team ultimately fell, 6-3.
