Remember the names Jessica Larson, Jaime Chu, Lauren Corkery and Ashley Marynick. These four women not only comprise the unit that smothers opposing offenses, they are also the catalysts for Harvard's overpowering attack, starting the runs into enemy territory.

Junior goalkeeper Anne Browning was relatively untested against Cornell, recording just two saves as the Crimson outshot the Big Red by a staggering 21-3 margin. Still, Browning and senior goalkeeper Jen Burney have been solid in net, both sporting excellent goals against averages of 0.78 and 0.36, respectively.

If one defender merits special recognition, it is Larson. The junior sweeper takes her job literally, cleaning out Harvard's half of the pitch and she made her presence felt all over the filed on Saturday.

Late in the match, Larson took the ball from an unsuspecting Cornell attacker, dribbled deep into the Big Red's defense and fired a shot on goal that went just wide of the net.

"As a unit, [the defense] tries to stay connected to the team," Larson said. "We want to be a supporting option, play the ball through the back and send defenders up to make runs."

To the Victors...

Harvard's talent-laden squad has already begun to receive its share of individual accolades.

Last week freshman forward Colleen Moore was named the Ivy League Rookie of the Week for her goal in the Crimson's 2-1 victory over Penn. Moore's goal, the first of her collegiate career, ended Penn's 729-minute scoreless streak.

The honors continued this week as Stauffer was named the League's Player of the Week for her performance against the Big Red. But she did not stop there.

Already a three-time All-American, Stauffer is once again one of 15 finalists for the Missouri Athletic Club Sports Foundation Collegiate Soccer award, which goes to the nation's top American-born or -naturalized player. Also for the second time in her career, she is a finalist for college soccer's other elite individual honor, the Herman Trophy.

Browning made this week's Ivy honor roll based on her play this weekend, and Miller was named the Soccer Buzz Elite Feet Team featured player of the week. Check out the colorful bio on Miller at the Soccer Buzz web site (http://www.soccerbuzz.com/elite/elite_nefram.htm) .
