The shutout was earned by sophomore goaltender Anne Browning, whose six saves solidified the victory.
"Anne played amazingly," Zotter said. "She had a couple of really incredible saves. Dartmouth is really good in the air when they are in the box, and she snagged some balls that could have been very dangerous for us."
Now, with this critical win behind them, Harvard has only one hurdle left to clear: Brown.
"We're really pumped up to play Brown," Zotter said. "If we win, we'll win the Ivies. For the past few years, Brown has been one of our bigger rivals. They haven't been doing quite so well this season, but it's a big game nonetheless."
"It'll be exciting to play them," Berman added. "We should win--we're playing really well right now, and it's our last Ivy match."
With the confidence, desire and winning momentum Harvard has proved itself capable of, it is likely the team will soon see its dreams come true.
