This week's episode of Squash University has been a long time in the making, as Jackson welcomed University of Rochester #1, friend of the program, and this week's honorary cohost Yash Fadte onto the show. Jackson and Yash talked about being back on campus ahead of the upcoming CSA season, Yash's excitement to become a captain for the Yellow Jackets, helping the team's new freshman acclimate to college life, being snubbed from CSA Individuals last season, his goals for this season, what he's most looking forward to off the court in his senior year, and more (0:22). 

Then, Yash's former teammate, current coach, and good friend Matt Dukarm makes his long overdue debut on Squash University. The U of R head coach and reigning Liberty League Men's Coach of the Year discusses his roller-coaster journey to becoming the program's interim head coach this time last year and ultimately being named full-time head coach by season's end. Jackson and Yash also asked Coach Matt about leading the Yellow Jackets to the Hoehn Cup title, Rochester's legendary nicknames tradition, becoming a certified meditation instructor, and more (32:31). 

Huge thanks to Yash for cohosting this week's show and to Coach Matt for joining us, as we're wishing Rochester the best of luck this season!
