...YORK—Brown finally has an Ivy League title of its own. Nick Hartigan ran for 229 yards and set a league record for career touchdowns Saturday, leading Brown to a 52-21 victory over Columbia (2-8, 0-7 Ivy) for its first outright Ivy championship. “It’s a wonderful feeling to finish off a season like this,” Brown coach Phil Estes said. “This has been a great ride.” While Hartigan shrugged off his individual achievements, Estes said, “He?...

The Lions won nine of the last 11 races to pull away with a 160.5-139.5 victory over Harvard, which had not lost a dual meet since the 2003-2004 season. The Columbia meet provided a study in contrasts with the Crimson’s contest against Cornell and Dartmouth the previous weekend. In that meet, Harvard came out slowly to fall behind Cornell...
...domination of the Harvard women’s swimming and diving team over its competition is safe for another week. The Crimson (4-0, 4-0 Ivy) logged another win on Friday, beating Columbia (1-1, 1-1) 159-84 in New York. With the victory Harvard extends its winning streak to 14 straight dual wins. “We did not exactly swim our top line,” co-captain Joanna Lee said. “We were still expecting to come through strong, though.” The Crimson was able...
