If Harvard this weekend gets into a special teams duel, it might find itself in a heap of trouble.

And that's not necessarily because it was the Crimson's special teams that gave up all 11 points in Saturday's 11-6 loss.

It's mainly because Brown boasts the best placekicker in the league in Chris Ingerslev.

The senior, who is also a member of the Brown soccer team, has converted nine of 10 field goals in the last two weekends, and last weekend just missed having a second straight five-field goal weekend.

Despite his 7-for-18 performance Saturday, Harvard senior quarterback Brian White moved into fifth place on the all-time Harvard pass yardage list.

White, whose completion percentage of .421 this year is the lowest of any Harvard starter in years, now has 1833 yards. He moved passed Hawaii senator Milt Holt '75, who had 1800 yards.

The Massachusetts native needs 106 passing yards to move past Don Allard '83 and into fourth place on the list.

In addition, White has 2159 yards total offense, and needs 113 yards to move into fifth place on the career total offense list and 192 yards to take fourth place.

From the not that it means anything but file, part II, comes this fact: of the last three times Harvard has lost to Princeton, it has twice gone on to lose to Brown, as well.

But of the three times that Joe Restic-coached Harvard squads have taken 4-2 records into the Brown game, the Crimson has come away a winner each time.
