...pivotal to come out strong,” Harvard coach Jenny Allard said. “We had really good, focused at-bats and we started right away. I think we were motivated to put runs on the board early.” Leadoff batter Emily Henderson cracked an infield single to start the game. The speedy freshman then stole second before Macadam knocked a single to center field to put runners at the corners. A fielder’s choice brought Henderson home, then Emily Bowers singled to left to score Macadam, and finally sophomore Melissa Schellberg...

The team, however, dropped two of those games—one loss came from a walk-off homer against the Bulldogs and the other from a walk-off infield single against Northeastern.“The thing that’s really keeping me going is the attitude of the kids,” Walsh said. “They’re handling these one-run loses and playing with a lot of enthusiasm the next...
