Together or apart, a flock is still a flock.\u201d These words from Paul Assaiante, Trinity\u2019s championship-winning head men\u2019s squash coach, capped a video that was shared with the Trinity community not long after the college, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, decided to move to remote learning.
