Welcome to a very special edition of Squash University!

This week, Gilly and Jackson welcome the greatest coach in college squash history Paul Assaiante onto the show. In his storied 29-year run as the head coach of the Trinity College men's squash team, Assaiante led the Bantams to 17 CSA National Championships, and recently added 2 more as a special advisor for the Trinity women’s team.

Coach A joins Squash U to talk about his tight-knit 20+ year relationship with Gilly, spearheading the international recruiting effort in college squash, Trinity's historic 13-year winning streak, coaching World Team Tennis, his friendships with Mike Krzyzewski and Bill Belichick, facing adversity, life lessons, and more.

It was an absolute honor to have Coach on this week. Huge thanks to him for taking the time to join us, and huge thanks to you for listening along. As always… enjoy!
