...everybody, and they didn’t play like it meant less, because a victory is a victory.”The Highlanders also seemed to take the match seriously, yelling raucously after every point won. But Harvard enjoyed the upper hand, relying on Weintraub’s crisp passing and the team’s solid outside hitting to close out the four-set victory with a 25-30, 30-18 split.Senior co-captain Brady Weissbourd led the attack with a dominant all-around performance, posting a match-high 27 kills—bringing his weekend total to 55?...
