...Knoche, ready and waiting, intercepted the ball, earning her the first of ten saves on the game and maintaining the scoreless tie. Harvard muscled its way into some scoring chances of its own in the first half. An aggressive shot by sophomore Tami Jafar edged just wide of the cage before the Crimson’s attack was again foiled, this time by the hustle and alertness of a Brown player from the forward line; her tenacity led to an impressive save of Harvard’s best offensive opportunity on goal.
