The focus of the weekend centered on Iona. The victory over the Gaels assured Harvard its Northern Division Championship seeding and, in all likelihood, a loss would have negated any momentum built by the other four victories.

The Crimson came out strong and dominated most of the match. Iona had drawn the score to 7-4 at the half, but Harvard was never in danger as it routed Iona in the second half, outscoring the Gaels, 11-5.

Freshmen drivers Alex Fisher and Michael Masterson led the way for Harvard. Masterson torched the Gaels for five goals while Fisher added a hat trick.

"I didn't expect to beat Iona by so much," said sophomore driver Michael Crosby. "We controlled the whole game as Fisher and Masterson were terrific. They are both strong players with speed. It was nice to see them get some goals."

Harvard clearly was the class of this tournament and Saturday's teams posed little challenge for the Crimson.

Lehman does not traditionally field strong teams and water polo is a club sport in Villanova.

Harvard actually used its B-squad to dispatch the Lightning and Wildcats, using more of its freshmen and resting some of its veterans for the battle against Iona.
