The Crimson used the 10-game winning streak to jump-start a 17-5 record over its final 22 regular season games, an impressive stretch that included sweeps of Columbia, Penn, Holy Cross, and Yale. Harvard hit a collective .297, good enough for second in the Ivy League. Leading the way for the Crimson was freshman Ellen Macadam, who hit at a .371 clip.

Harvard started the season on a high note by winning the Dartmouth Invitational by a whopping 42 strokes in September. Next up were the first big tests. The Crimson, however, was not up to the task, finishing third behind...
...break trip, the squad was 0-9. Harvard dropped three more matches to brutal opponents out West, but generated confidence by keeping matches close.
