...paper, Harvard’s win over Ivy League rival Dartmouth Saturday night looked more like a junior varsity high school matchup than a contest between what have been the league’s top two squads for the past decade. The Crimson turned the ball over 24 times, tied a season low for points scored, and saw only one starter reach double figures. But on a night when Harvard turned in by far its best defensive effort of the season, it was enough. The Crimson (8-8, 1-1 Ivy) held the Big Green...
Three weeks after watching Dartmouth celebrate its victory in the Ivy opener between these two teams at Lavietes Pavilion, Harvard knew that it would again have its work cut out for it in Hanover. The Crimson had fallen behind early in the first half in the opener, but did not have to play catch-up again in the rematch.

Junior Sarah Wilson found Liza Ryabkina in the slot on the left side and the freshman lifted a shot over Lacina's glove for the fifth goal of her rookie season. Lacina, who finished with 39 stops, 16 of them in the opening frame, got the start in lieu of regular Big Green goalie Carli Clemis and saw her goals-against average rise from a sparkling 0.60 to a more pedestrian...
