Next year, Princeton comes to Cumnock. Will things be different?

For that to happen, Harvard will have to keep up its intestinal fortitude. Three of the Crimson's first six wins on the season came in overtime, two of which were Ivy games; Harvard was 8-5 in one-goal games and 4-2 in overtime.

It would be unfair to call the overtime victories lucky. In the extra minute time, four players on each side are removed to make sure that a goal is scored, and that just leaves more room for Harvard's forwards to roam. Still, the Crimson never really had any bad luck, and that can not be counted on in the future.

Harvard will lose the brunt of its defense. Co-captains Daphne Clark and Mary Eileen Duffy will graduate along with Whitney Smith, leaving three back spots open.

Expect Schoolwerth to take over Clark's spot as the main hitter on the corner battery--last year, Schoolwerth could hit the ball hard but would lift it up a little too much--and sophomore Stacey DiCiccio will probably step into one of the empty back spots.

Junior Eileen Horwath might also take a back spot if she doesn't mind the yo-yo positioning she has had so far at Harvard--for her first two seasons she was a back but moved up to forward in 1996.

One position that is set is in goal. Freshman Anya Cowan preformed magnificently with a 1.74 goals-against average and a berth on the Second Team All-Ivy squad.
