This is Yale
History
Yale University, founded in 1701, is the third oldest
college in the United States and one of the foremost
research universities in the world. First known as the
Collegiate School, it changed its name in 1718 to honor
benefactor Elihu Yale.
Students
Since its first class, which had only one pupil,
Yale has expanded into a university with 5,100 undergraduates and 11 graduate and professional
schools with roughly 5,200 students. Women were
admitted to graduate schools in 1892 and to the
undergraduate college in 1969. Today they make
up about 50 percent of the enrollment. Students
come from all 50 states and over 60 countries.
Faculty
The Yale faculty includes more than 2,000
scholars, many of whom are internationally respected authorities in their fields. Fourteen Nobel
Prize winners have been associated with Yale.
Classes
There are approximately 1,900 courses and
75 majors or programs of study, including 35
different languages.
Admissions
In selecting a class of 1,300 from approximately 18,000 applicants, the Admissions
Committee looks for strong academic ability
and achievement combined with personal
characteristics such as motivation, curiosity,
energy, and leadership ability. Academic
strength is indicated by grades, rigor of curriculum, standardized test scores, and evaluations by two teachers and a college counselor. Yale requires results of the College Board
Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT or SAT 1) and
any three SAT II: Subject Tests or the American College Testing (ACT) Assessment. Yale
will also accept the Common Application. In
addition, students whose native language is
not English must submit results of the Test of
English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL).
Athletics
With 35 varsity sports teams and a large
intramural program, sports have a prominent
place at Yale. The University offers more than
500 acres of playing fields and nine-story
Payne Whitney Gym, one of the largest athletic structures in the world. No university
takes greater pride in its athletic heritage.
No fewer than 148 athletes have competed
in the Olympics. Together they have brought
home 88 medals - more than most nations
- including 49 gold, 15 silver and 24 bronze.
Financial Aid
It is Yale’s policy to admit all students
on the basis of academic and personal
promise without regard to their financial circumstances. In addition, the
University is committed to meeting
the full need of all admitted students by providing them with appropriate financial aid awards.
This “need-blind” admissions
policy applies to all applicants including international citizens.
Currently, approximately 45
percent of all Yale students receive financial assistance
through loans, scholarships
and work-study employment.
For more information, call the
Yale Financial Aid Office at
203-432-0360.
Residential Life
All incoming students are
assigned to one of 12 residential colleges before they
arrive freshman year. All
freshmen and sophomores
are required to live on campus. Each residential college has its own dining
hall, as well as library,
computers, TV and game
rooms, and often theaters, weight rooms, and
music practice rooms.
The residential colleges
sponsor numerous academic and extracurricular programs, including
musical performances,
dramatic productions,
intramural
sports
teams, visiting fellowships and academic
seminars. A resident
master and dean take
care of the academic
and administrative
needs of each college, and faculty “fellows” participate in
the community by
acting as student
advisors and eating
in the college’s dining hall.

The Yale men’s squash team enters the 2003-04 year with a veteran team. Eight seniors lead this group with one goal
in mind, the Ivy League championship.
Captain Ryan Byrnes leads this group of seniors, who represent Yale’s largest graduating class since 1989. Byrnes
has played his entire Yale career in the top five after winning the Interscholastic Championship his senior year at Taft
School. Two-time All-Ivy selection and second team All-American Anshul Manchanda returns for his final season.
He played at No. 2 last season after competing in the top position his first two years. Considered one of the top players
in the league, Manchanda looks to close his career in a strong fashion. Albert McCrery returns as a three-year letterwinner
with one of the highest winning percentages on the team. He has been an integral part of Yale’s depth. Senior Alex
Ende lettered the past two years and is looking to rebound after suffering through a stress fracture his junior year. Four
more seniors round out this exceptional class. Terence Li, who has had a strong preseason, is challenging for a spot in
the top 10 after being right on the fringe of the line-up the past two seasons. Steve Fair is also very close to cracking the
lineup for the first time. Quincy Fennebresque continues to improve and lend his strong leadership and candor to the
group. Brad Hathaway may be the most improved of the seniors and has led with his intensity and enthusiasm.
Sophomore Julian Illingworth, Yale’s No. 1 player, leads the underclassmen. He was first team All-American and
first team All-Ivy as a freshman. Illingworth was No. 1 on the U.S. World Junior Team
in 2002 that competed in Chennai, India, and was voted by the United States Olympic
Anshul
Committee the 2002-03 Squash Player of the Year. Heading a Yale team that returns its
Manchanda
top four players, Illingworth hopes to win the Intercollegiate Singles Title as well as
lead Yale to an Ivy Championship. Although an amatur, he is currently ranked fifth
among the United States Professionals.
Joining Illingworth and Manchanda in the top spots are junior Josh Schwartz and
sophomore Avner Geva. Both players battled injuries last season but are currently
healthy. They are two of the top players in the league and keys to the success of the
team this season.
Gavin Cumberbatch, a junior, is one of the most talented players at Yale and is
looking for a break-out season. A consistent winner his first two years, he is being
counted on to step into the top five.
Junior Chris Wyant and sophomore Trevor Rees, who each had key wins last
season, are returning letterwinners. Both are experienced players who will move up in
the lineup this season.
Sophomores Andrew Vinci and Alex Tilton are ready
to make an impact this season. Vinci is battling for a top 10
spot along with Tilton, who has been slowed by injuries.

The 2002-03 Yale men’s squash team had a successful season and fell one point short of winning the
Ivy League. Posting a 17-2 record in the regular season for a second straight year, Yale finished second in
the Ivy League and third nationally.
Led by three seniors who were all four-year letter
winners, the squad was a well-balanced team. Captain Ziad Haider was joined by classmates Chris Olsen
and Aftab Mathur to give excellent leadership to the
underclassmen.
The team opened the season with an 8-1 win over
Ivy League opponent, Penn. Yale then ran off four
more wins over Williams, Dartmouth, Cornell, and Hobart by a combined match score of 34-2.
Yale then traveled to Trinity College to take on the four-time defending national champions. Beaten by a score of 82, Yale was close in several matches and showed great improvement against a truly strong and predominantly international team. Trinity went on to finish the year undefeated and win its fifth consecutive international championship.
At the Yale Round Robin, the Bulldogs notched seven more wins, all by the score of 9-0. The team improved its record
to 12-1. This set up a showdown with Princeton on Feb. 1 in a match that decided the Ivy League championship.
Before a packed Brady Squash Center at Yale, the Elis played some of their best squash of the year. The battle
matched Yale’s depth against a Princeton team that had four seniors in its top five. Things played out according to plan,
as Yale won the bottom four spots and the Princeton seniors won at the two through five spots. In the No. 1 match, Yale
freshman sensation Julian Illingworth went up 2-0, 8-4 on Princeton’s freshman, Yasser El Halaby, the top ranked junior
from Egypt. El Halaby, though, came back to beat Illingworth, who many consider to be the best young American player
since Mark Talbott, currently the Yale women’s coach. Halaby went on to win the Intercollegiate Singles Title.
Yale recovered from this incredibly tough loss to post four more wins and arrive at Harvard with a 16-2 record. In
another exciting match, Yale beat Harvard (5-4) for the first time at Cambridge since 1961. Again, the match was tied
at four with the No. 1 position deciding it. This time Illingworth closed it for a Yale victory.
Three days later a tired Yale squad finished 4th at the year-end team championships behind Trinity, Princeton and
Harvard. This was a disappointment after the very successful regular season. Injury and illness played a key role in this
last competition.
The 2002-03 Yale squash team was a hard working and dedicated group. With a strong freshman class and a mix of
veteran leadership, this Bulldog team had a very successful season.

Squash is one of Yale’s oldest intercollegiate sports. Yale’s squash competition began in 1920, setting off a rich
tradition of championship players and teams that has continued to the present. The Bulldogs have captured 15 ISA Team
Championships and have won nearly 85 percent of their dual matches. The man responsible for Yale's original success
was John Skillman, a three-time professional champion before taking over the Eli program in 1934 as its first head
coach. Skillman spent the next 41 years as the Yale mentor while compiling a 451-77 record. His teams won 16 national
titles and had just one losing season.
Brothers Sam '60 and Ralph Howe '63 each won U.S. singles and doubles titles. More recently, Victor Wagner '83
was an All-American for four years and won the Intercollegiate Championship in 1982. In 1986, Hugh LaBossier '86
won the U.S. National Hard Ball Championship. An All-American for three years, he received the Mallory Award as
Yale’s top male athlete and appeared in Sports Illustrated. In 1989, Will Carlin '85, also an All-American for three
years, won the U.S. National Soft Ball Championship.
Recent Yale stars, Cyrus Mehta '90 and John Musto '91, earned first-team NISRA All-America and All-Ivy
honors on a regular basis during their careers in New Haven. Garrett Frank '92 was a two-time first team AllAmerican. Reade Frank '94 was first team All-America, All-Ivy and All-Academic, while Roger Arjoon '95 also was
first team All-America, All-Ivy and Academic All-Ivy selection in addition to being selected as a Rhodes Scholar. Doug
Lam '98 earned All-Ivy and honorable mention All-America honors, while Devraj Roy '98 was an Academic AllAmerica selection as well as a member of the 1998 NISRA All-Tournament team. In 1999-2000, Kris Weiner ‘00 was
an honorable mention All-America selection, and in 2000-01 Peter Grote ‘02 and Anshul Manchanda ‘04 both
earned first team All-Ivy and second team All-America honors. In 2001-02, Manchanda was first team All-Ivy and
second team All-America. In 2002-03, Julian Illingworth ‘07 was a first team All-America and All-Ivy selection, and
Manchanda earned second team All-America recognition.
The Elis captured two consecutive (1988-89, 1989-90) National Intercollegiate Squash Racquets Association regular
season titles and post-season championships. The 1988-89 championship was their first title in 27 years.

late 1920’s, 25 single courts and 2 doubles courts
were included.They were constructed according
to the American rules of squash – the courts
were narrower than the international courts
used in everty other country. In the late
1990’s, as travel became easier, more and
