NEW YORK — The Columbia men's and women's squash teams will play their final two home matches of the 2022-23 season this weekend. The Lions host Dartmouth on Saturday, followed by Harvard on Sunday. Both days' matches will get underway at 12 noon ET.

Columbia will honor its four seniors prior to the start of Sunday's match against the Crimson. On the women's side are Ellie McVeigh and Elizabeth Lentz. On the men's side are Chaitanya Shah and Hugh Camiener. All four joined the Lions in 2019.

Fans unable to attend can watch the action live on GoColumbiaLions.com's streaming platform. Live results will also be available courtesy of ClubLocker.com.

The eighth-ranked Columbia women will look to bounce back from narrow losses last weekend. The Lions were dealt a, 5-4, defeat by No. 5 Yale in New Haven, followed by a, 6-3, decision to No. 1 Trinity. Saturday's match against the Bulldogs came down to the wire before Yale clinched it with a five-game win in the final duel. Trinity took the first six points on Sunday before Columbia finished strong with victories by Simmi Chan, Erica McGillicuddy and Kiro Manoharan.

Dartmouth comes into the match ranked No. 10 on both the men's and women's side. Harvard is No. 1 in the men's rankings and No. 2 in the women's rankings.

Columbia's ninth-ranked men are also coming off a pair of weekend losses to Yale and Trinity. The No. 4 Bulldogs took an 8-1 win over the Lions last Saturday, while the No. 6 Bantams won the next day's match, 7-2. Despite the 7-2 score line against Trinity, four of the top-nine scoring matches went the full five games. Zach Nam and Ryan Chen pulled out their duals.
