Senior Garnett Booth won without giving up a point in a 9-0, 9-0, 9-0 sweep. Senior Mihir Sheth, after being hit in the hand with his opponent’s racquet, won in three quick games. Freshman Colin West also had an easy time in the third slot for Harvard. After winter break, the Crimson will face its toughest competitors of the season when it takes on Trinity...

The most dominant match on the day belonged to captain Ilan Oren, who defeated his opponent by giving up only 2 points, all in the third and final game.

"Happy to find a receptive audience," he slyly told fawning musicians in Singapore, an earlier stop, after he answered their entreaties...
...next three spots. Next up for the Class of 2010 was Clarke, who won the 200 free in 1:52.10, with senior Emily Wilson touching the wall close behind in 1:53.18. Clarke and Wilson would later go on to lead the Crimson’s second big sweep of the night, as Harvard swimmers captured the top four places in the 500 free. Clarke finished first in 4:57.98, Wilson second in 5:01.79, and Weisenthal and freshman Katie Faulkner in third and fourth, respectively.
