...said first-year head coach Traci Green. “I saw great improvement by most everyone.” At the start of the spring season, Harvard demonstrated that it had the potential to do some damage in the Ivies when it nearly knocked off No. 57 Southern Methodist University in a 4-3 loss at home. But over the course of the preseason, injuries and illness broke up the starting lineup and prevented the Crimson from competing at the top of its game.

Jackson, the prominent civil rights activist and two-time presidential candidate, was slated to speak at the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) church in Central Square as part of an annual speech organized by the Charles Hamilton Houston Institute for Race & Justice, an organization at the Law School founded by Ogletree.
