ITHACA, N.Y. — Senior Nick Sachvie and sophomore Aditya Jagtap won their matches at the top of the order on Sunday, but the men's squash team suffered a 7-2 loss against second-ranked Trinity at Belkin International Squash Courts.
 
Jagtap secured the first point of the match for sixth-ranked Cornell (11-2), topping Juan Vargas in four games at the No. 2 spot. Sachvie then won the first game of his match against Reinhold Hergeth at No. 1 and was ahead in the second game when Hergeth retired. Jagtap is now 9-1 on the season, while Sachvie improved to 7-3.
 
The Big Red entered the match ranked sixth in the nation by the College Squash Association, but figures to move up after its mid-week victory over No. 5 Rochester. Cornell returns to Ivy League play next weekend with a Saturday match at Dartmouth, followed by a Sunday tilt at Harvard. Trinity is now 11-0 and has won 13 of the last 14 national championships.
