Harvard concluded its season at the NCAA Northeast Regional Championship, where the women and men earned ninth and eighth overall, respectively. All seven Crimson women placed in the top 100, including Scherf with her No. 5 finish. Barrett again headed the Harvard men’s attack, finishing No. 45 in the field.
