...easy to become so wrapped up in personal goals that we forget to smell the proverbial roses, or read overhead signs carved in stone. A competitive bunch by definition, Harvard students spend much of their time involved in rivalries with their peers over social status (joining a final club or standing adamantly opposed to them), over academic achievement, over recruiting for that summer internship at JP Morgan, or over leadership positions in student organizations...

...losing streak that would strip Harvard of its chances to nab the top spot. Perhaps the most disappointing defeat of the season came in the sixth game of the streak, as the Crimson wasted a strong first-half performance against eventual Ivy League champion Cornell. Key turnovers in the final seconds allowed the Big Red to wrench the game from Harvard’s grasp, 72-71. While a 1-7 Ivy record forced the Crimson to look to next year for its title dreams, it was not enough to crush morale. Harvard bounced back by sweeping Penn and Princeton...

...dual meet record, a second-place finish at Ivies, a No. 2 ranking among mid-major teams, and nine new school records. Harvard handily beat every team in the Ivy League except Princeton, who handed the team its first loss in the season’s final dual meet and then claimed victory again at the Ivy League Championships.

Leading the charge for the Crimson was an extremely talented...

...University and Princeton. Despite the poor Ancient Eight showing during the heart of its season, the Crimson ended with a 14-11 win against non-conference foe Boston College under the lights at Harvard Stadium. Graduating seniors Caroline Simmons, Natalie Curtis, and Lauren Bobzin all posted goals in the final game of their collegiate careers. Though the Crimson’s performance throughout the season was not always rewarded with a win, Harvard’s determination did not go entirely unnoticed—the Crimson took home three Ivy League awards. Bobzin, Martin, and freshman Jessica Halpern each earned...

...meet of the season, Harvard kept the momentum all year long, defeating every opponent it faced. After a solid win over Princeton—the only dual loss for last year’s squad—the Crimson built on its momentum by easily defeating Penn in its final regular season contest. The win gave Harvard a perfect 9-0 dual meet season and claimed the regular season title, which had gone to the Tigers the previous winter. The Crimson accomplished all of this despite spending the majority of its season swimming away from the friendly confines of Blodgett...
