The Crimson fielded two five-person teams in New Haven, Conn., where collegiate and national-level squads faced off in a three-day tournament. In the end, Harvard’s A team took fifth place, while the B team did not fare as well, suffering elimination after losing its first two matches of the tournament. Harvard managed...
