...Donnell said. “We have some momentum.” The first CSA rankings of the season were released on December 17 and placed the Crimson at No. 3, behind only No. 1 Princeton (3-0, 2-0 Ivy) and No. 2 Penn (3-0, 3-0 Ivy). Harvard plays both the Tigers (February 9) and the Tigers (February 10) in what promises to be a challenging second half of the season.
