CARLISLE, Pa. - The Dickinson men's squash team found early success on Friday night against the visiting 19th-ranked Amherst College, but it would not be enough as the Mammoths left the Kline Squash Center with a 7-2 victory.

Inside the Match
Omar Ali held off a valiant effort from Kedar Nagaraj at the number one spot in the first game taking it 11-9, before cruising 11-4, 11-4 to seal the match. Then, at second flight Mark Naguib rallied back from an early two games to none hole to knockoff Adam Lichtmacher in five in the best match of the evening. Kobe Fleming was the only other Devil to win a game as he took a tightly contested first game in the third slot versus Neal Malani 15-13, but was unable to ride that momentum as he succumbed to the Mammoth opposition in four.
