...biggest games. Against No. 8 Penn, the eventual national runner-up, Halpern scored twice, and led all Crimson scorers against No. 2 Princeton, tallying three goals, including back-to-back unassisted scores that gave Harvard a 4-3 lead in the first half of an eventual 18-9 loss.

Visiting Harvard demolished previously unbeaten and heavily favored Yale, 37-6, to claim the Ivy title. Quarterback Chris Pizzotti had a huge day and the Crimson defense stymied a juggernaut Yale running game. Lost...
...Grand Finals. It makes it a little nerve-wracking, though I am really proud of our racing this year.”Opening the spring with a bang by racing defending NCAA champion Brown, the Black and White kicked off an exciting racing season, suffering just a four-seat loss in the varsity eight and a mere three second loss in the second varsity. Impressively, the novices held their own as well, lagging behind the Ivy powerhouse by less than a second.The next week, then-No. 13 Radcliffe welcomed Princeton and Cornell to the Charles for some...
