CLINTON, N.Y. - The Bowdoin College men's squash team faced little resistance in a 9-0 sweep of Tufts in Friday's NESCAC First Round Friday evening at Hamilton College.

The Polar Bears (8-8) advance to Saturday's quarterfinal round against Williams at 10:30 a.m. Bowdoin also swept Tufts 9-0 in its season opener on November 23.
