The University of Rochester squash team rolled past #14 ranked George Washington University on Sunday afternoon at the Peter Lyman Squash Center, posting a 9-0 victory.
 
UR, ranked #5 in the latest CSA poll, has now won three straight matches and is 5-1 on the season.  George Washington drops to 5-7 on the season.
 
Eight of the nine wins for UR came by 3-0 scores.  Ashley Davies, Ricardo Lopez and Matthew Toth earned their wins in the top-3 on Sunday.  Davies won 11-5, 11-7 and 11-4 over Mohammad Al-Terki, Lopez was an 11-4, 11-7 and 11-6 winner over Salim Khan, and Toth ousted Inaki DeLarrauri 11-7, 13-11 and 11-9.
 
At four, the lone match that went more than three games, Lawrence Kuhn won 4-11, 11-8, 11-1 and 11-8 over Julian Jervis.  Marcus Sim topped Juan Laguna 11-4, 11-4 and 11-3 at fifth position and Cesar Segundo earned an 11-4, 11-8 and 11-7 win at #6 over Lucas Stauffer.
 
The bottom third of the order was perfect on the weekend, earning three more wins on Sunday to go with a 3-0 record in Saturday's win over Drexel.  Rodrigo Porras earned a win at #7, Sergio Martin played and swept his opponent at #8 and Alex Riedelsheimer won 3-0 at #9.  Porras remains unbeaten on the season after his 11-5, 11-3 and 11-3 win over Abbas Saeed.  Martin defeated Geordie Laird 11-5, 11-8 and 11-8, and Riedelsheimer won 11-8, 11-4, and 11-6 over Idan Hare.
 
This was the first ever match between GWU and Rochester at the Lyman Center, and pushes UR's record against the Colonials to 8-2 all-time.
 
UR's next match is Tuesday evening, with the Yellowjackets hosting top-ranked and defending national champion Trinity College at 6 pm.
