...many of its preseason wrinkles but couldn’t overcome a goal by the Lions’ Tiffany Harrison in the 52nd minute. The defense held strong and junior goalkeeper Lauren Mann made four saves. Both Leone and captain Nicole Rhodes noted the strong play of the Harvard keepers, Mann and junior Laura Dale, over the weekend. “I think we played well defensively,” Leone said. “There were short lapses that cost us the goals.” Last year’s Ivy League Rookie of the Year, sophomore Katherine...

It is a policy extension of the phrase he often uses - "I am my brother's keeper" - to express his belief that members of a society are responsible for one another.
