These games bring the women’s record up to 10-4 and the men’s record to 8-4.
The Red further asserted its primacy in the Ancient Eight.
Men’s and women’s polo returned to the field last weekend for their first games since venerated former head coach David Eldredge ’81 — the winningest in Cornell Athletics history — retired amidst allegations of misconduct.
In their showing against regional rival UConn, the women of the Cornell polo struggled to break their losing streak. The Red had its match against the Huskies on Saturday with a home field advantage, but came away with a 17-10 loss. “I honestly can say we just didn’t have a good day,” said senior Emma Eldredge. “That happens. We all get days where things just aren’t working out how we want them to, just as some days we will play incredibly well.”
The team’s previous matchup against UConn was down to the wire, with the Huskies pulling ahead by one goal.
The Red is left with a 2-3 record as they prepare to face UConn yet again on Saturday, this time on home turf.
