"Harvard cleaned up," Pine said. "We won almost every event and we won the team match by a landslide, as always."
Fung and his sister and dancing partner Jennifer M. Fung '97, won the International Style Standard division of the February competition. Fung said he was happier about the Harvard-Radcliffe team's overall success than about this personal victory, though.
"It's always nice because it is [Harvard's] competition and we put it on and we danced really hard and we won," he said.
Team members said ballroom dancing can be as valuable for those who do it recreationally as it is for its most intense competitors.
"I think a lot of people could get a lot out of it at least socially if not competitively," Izlan said.
"It's something you can't do by yourself," Pine said. "One person dancing isn't ballroom."
