But during these six games, the team’s offensive performance remained stagnant, producing only seven goals on the offensive end. This alarming trend hurt Harvard as it began its Ivy season traveling to Philadelphia, where the Penn women thumped the Crimson to the tune of a 2-0 victory. Harvard was still resting on that one wrong foot. The defense was stellar, headed by junior keepers Lauren Mann and Laura Dale, two of the best goalies, statistically, in the nation.
