After a more-than-disappointing 2006 season in which it mustered just three wins, the Harvard women’s soccer team faced a plethora of offseason questions. Who would replace head coach Erica Walsh, who left Cambridge for Penn State after just one season? Who would provide the offensive spark in 2007 after the Crimson was shut out nine times in 17 games?

...sort of stumbling out of the gates that there was no room for error...[The coaching staff] stressed that we needed to have a sense of urgency because of the parity in the Ivy League.”Yet it wasn’t until the penultimate game against Penn that things really came together. The mediocre team that relied heavily on defense and sunk to its opponents’ level—a single score separated Harvard and perennial bottom dweller Columbia at halftime of the Crimson’s 27-12 win—finally reached...
