Playing against Penn State early in the season, freshman Devon Sherman, who had been starting in the midfield, was sidelined with a leg injury that kept her out for the next nine games. Next, fellow freshman and starter Nichols suffered facial fractures and was out for three games. Then, proving that bad things come in waves, sophomore Allison Keeley, an anchor of the defense, went down with a stress...

After shaking off his defender, Hoff finished the cross and chipped it over the head of Tiger goalkeeper Joe Walters to score. Although a scoreless half would not have disheartened the Crimson, a halftime lead was far better for Harvard, as Princeton?...

The back-to-back goals unfolded similarly, as Anangnostopaulos found open space for a quality shot on the left side after receiving a long pass from midfielder Lauren Thomas. “It was a lack of focus, and the way we reacted to the first one was we dug ourselves deeper instead of coming together,” said head Coach Erica Walsh. “I thought that was a little bit of a theme...
