With the first 30 minutes of waiting nearly complete, another flash of lightning held up play again. Harvard spent the time in an indoor track trying to stay active.
Playing under the lights took on a whole new meeting Saturday night when the Harvard women’s soccer team faced off against Brown (4-8-0, 1-3-0) at Stevenson Field in Providence. A nearby lightning show and torrential downpour halted the action for over one hour...
Both teams had been scoreless for the first 82 minutes of play when the referee spotted lightning, forcing the teams to take a mandatory 30 minute hiatus.
“We were on top of them the whole game, especially the last five minutes before they delayed it because of the lightning,” Moran said.
Trading in the lightning strikes that have come to typify its style for a more measured pace, the Crimson offense strung together four scoring drives of 12 plays or more, each time surpassing four minutes of possession.
