...penalty shot. After Harvard freshman striker Melanie Baskind was fouled inside the box, junior Lizzy Nichols stepped into the box and lined up for the shot. Charging towards the ball, she slammed the ball into the upper left corner of the net, sealing the win over Columbia (11-4-2, 4-2-1 Ivy), the defending conference champions. With its 2-1 victory, Harvard (10-3-4, 5-1-1) is the Ivy League champion for the first time since 1999. “I think it was tough, and I give a lot of credit to [Nichols] for being...

...Knowlin said. “David Brekke came down and got a good block after I made my one cut, and then it pretty much opened up, and it was just me and the punter.” And sitting at 1-7 on the season, Columbia poses hardly the kind of threat that Penn and Yale—both 5-3—pose. The Crimson can’t afford to allow a botched punt, a punt return for a touchdown, or missed extra points when going up against the Quakers or the Bulldogs and hope...
