...different player shine on any given night, by giving up a good shot to find a great one, and by getting underclassmen and underappreciated players into the fold. Structurally, this team is different from last year’s. From start to finish in 2007, then-co-captain Christiana Lackner ’07 was an unsung hero, grabbing key rebounds at both ends and generally making the scrappy plays that make a difference in close games.

Junior Niki Finelli, a talented all-around player and dangerous three-point shooter, rounds out the backcourt. The Harvard frontcourt faces more of a challenge. The loss of Christiana Lackner, a dogged rebounder and one of last season’s captains, is one of the biggest problems for the Crimson. “We knew we had to fill Christiana’s shoes, and let me just officially state: no one has,” Delaney-Smith...
