PRINCETON, N.J. -- After an undefeated season as Cornell's No. 1, Veer Chotrani was unanimously named the 2023-24 Ivy League Player of the Year for men's squash. In addition to his Player of the Year title, Chotrani was one of six to be unanimously selected for the All-Ivy men's team.

Chotrani is undefeated in matches this season, winning all nine of his No. 1 matches, including four by three-game sweeps. The senior from Mumbai, India has never lost more than one game in a match and holds victories over the eight teams that were ranked in the top-10 nationally. His All-Ivy selection is the fourth of his career.

Junior teammate Aaron Liang was recognized as Cornell's academic All-Ivy representative.

Cornell returns to action this weekend when it takes on #10 Virginia in the regular season finale. Action is set to begin on Sunday, Feb. 18 in Charlottesville, Va.
