...Crimson fell to No. 4 Trinity to suffer its first opening-round defeat in the Howe Cup in the six-year history of the program. Mashruwala and Mumanachit had standout 3-0 victories, with Mumanachit dropping only eight points in a 9-3, 9-3, 9-1 blowout of Trinity’s Ashley Clackson. Balsekar closed out her opponent in the fourth set to win, 10-8, 9-5, 8-10, and 9-6 to improve to 5-1 since returning from injury. Of the Crimson’s six losses, O’Donnell played the most competitive...
...Year award. With high expectations, Miller wasted no time as she implemented drastic changes to the Crimson program. Some of her tactics were criticized as she cut several new recruits and a few veterans from the program. But there is no denying results, and a 19-2 blowout in her first game with Harvard is certainly a positive omen for Miller and the team. “I’m pleased with the way we started,” Miller said. “I thought we were pretty focused and pretty disciplined and we put the ball away...

In between its two losses came 12 straight Ivy wins, including sweet revenge against Yale at home and an 18-point blowout of rival Dartmouth in its final regular-season game. While I can’t predict the future, I detect a familiar pattern in this year’s blossoming campaign. The 2008 “wakeup call,” as coach Kathy Delaney-Smith called it, came...
...scorer averaging double figures. The Bears will need to use their stingy defense against the three if they hope to keep up with Harvard—the Crimson is making a third of its shots from long range this season, and rained down on Princeton last weekend in a blowout win. But very recent history warns the Crimson against overlooking the Bears as it looks ahead to the Bulldogs. Last weekend, Harvard faced a struggling Penn team and the perennial powerhouse Tigers on consecutive nights, and needed a game-winning jumper from junior guard Emily Tay to escape with...
