But ever since head coach Jason Saretsky brought his coaching expertise to Harvard, it has become apparent just how much both programs have improved in his three years with the Crimson. In the fall, the cross country team posted impressive results despite fielding a young team comprised mainly of freshmen and sophomores. “I thought the cross country season went well,” Saretsky said. “The team competed hard...
