Video: a lesson on the drop shot with Harvard squash coach Mike Way

Watch this video for a lesson on the drop shot with the Harvard squash coach.

From The January-February 2011 Issue

Harvard's new head squash coach, Mike Way (the subject of the January-February 2011 Harvard Portrait), believes that technical skill isn't enough for a good squash game—players also need "energy," a bit of subterfuge, and the shots should "feel good." See how Way teaches these concepts in this video.

Published in the January-February 2011 print issue under the headline “Squash, Mike Way’s Way,” in the section.
