...victory. But November brought the Crimson back to life. After a harrowing October, the team—relieved from the pressure of defending its Ivy crown—eviscerated its next three opponents, including a 4-0 demolition of Yale, and made it into the NCAAs for the second straight year. “We knew we had to come out and make a statement to get into the tournament,” co-captain Adam Hahn said. Harvard began first round play as the favorites against Central Connecticut State. But the favorite label was not a good look...
...Sheldon, sophomore Sarah Harvey, Balmert, and junior Ali Bode finished first, second, third, and fourth, respectively. The team’s first round score of 296 was a Crimson record, and the squad’s overall score of 600 was an ECAC Championship low.

But his new policy, which was stricter than what some senior advisers favored, undid all that straight talk and prompted a weeklong purge inside the campaign. A number of lobbyists were tossed over the side overnight, generating resentment. Most won't be missed much, but some will: gone is Loeffler, a lobbyist for Saudi Arabia, who played a central role in campaign fund raising and who functioned in effect...
