...Kerry Kartsonis said. “But at halftime we pulled it together and after [Merritt’s] goal early in the second half, kept the pressure on.” Merritt found the net in the 59th minute of the contest, capitalizing on Harvard’s stellar possession time throughout the second half. Kartsonis, who provided the game-winning goal against Fairfield last Tuesday, recorded her second assist of the season on the play. “When Kerry passed to me I got it in right past the goalkeeper, in the low right corner...
...Hagan improved steadily throughout that sophomore campaign, leading the Crimson to a 7-3 record and a four-game season-ending win streak, including the unforgettable triple-OT win at Yale. He led the Ivy League in total offense with 2,448 yards and turned in a stellar 133.2 efficiency rating, but was forced to relinquish the starting job to Pizzotti to begin 2006 as he sat out a five-game suspension.

Two years ago, it was now-junior forward Erin Wylie, who led the team in goals, and two-time captain and fellow third-year defensemen Nikki Rhodes, who anchored the defense that year, stepping to the forefront. Last year, a talented group led by sophomores Lizzy Nichols and Christian Hagner, provided a bright spot to an otherwise desolate year for the Crimson. This year, it is just more of the same. And at the top of her class rests freshman striker...
