Dylan Ward came through in the clutch a few days ago when Princeton’s men edged Harvard 5-4. Second year in a row he’s won against Harvard when the dual match was at 4-4.
(Princeton’s women also upset Harvard 5-4, with three Tiger wins coming in five games including Hallie Dewey who was down 0-2 and went on to win 11-9 in the fifth and Rachel Leizman who saved a match ball to beat Michelle Gemmell 12-10 in the fifth. Alexandra Sawin was the Tiger’s Dylan Ward, as she won at 4-4 to clinch the match.)
Turns out Ward and his fellow Philadelphian, classmate and teammate Ash Egan are a new version of George Polsky, Harvard’s quip master of the early 1990s.

Messrs. Ward and Egan are continuing the long tradition of Princeton Athletics trash talk in the Prince. Congratulations to them on a job well done.
