The season will culminate with Heps in late February at Cornell. "It's hard to predict [what will happen at Heps]," Haggerty said. "It depends on the development of the freshmen."

The Women

In his six years of coaching the Crimson, Haggerty claims that this year's women's team "is the deepest team I've seen at Harvard." Led by captains Nancy Lutz and Katie Toner, Haggerty has his eyes on a Hep title which is well within reach for this team.

Returning for the Crimson is sophmore Meredith Rainey, the indoor and outdoor Hep champion in the 400 meters.

"There will be no one to beat her," Haggerty said of Rainey, the school record holder in this event.

Also adding to Harvard's strength in the running events are sophmore Beth Pfefferle and junior Jackie Ball, both competitors in the 800.

Distance runners Lise Vansen--the outdoor 10,000 Hep champion--Tina Lount, and Julie Grialou, the number one cross-country runner for Harvard will lead the Crimson in the 1500, and the 3000.

For the jumps Harvard will be relying on juniors Jennifer Dunne and Laura Blodgett and sophomore Manda Schossberger. Sophomore Patty Min will lead a group of freshmen in the hurdling events.

Finally, though they are thin in numbers, Haggerty expects a good season from the throwers. Veterans Jennifer St. Lewis and Colleen Collins will provide the strength in these events.
