Harvard went into halftime up only the one goal, but came out of the intermission sharp and focused to put some points on the board.
In the 63rd minute, freshman forward Beth Totman--who has been a spectacular playmaker all season--lit up the scoreboard for the Crimson.
Yenne took possession near midfield and dribbled the ball up through the center of the Eagle defense. She then dished off to Totman who drilled a strong shot into the far-side netting, giving Harvard a 2-0 lead.
The Crimson was not done scoring just yet, though, as the strong Harvard bench came through for the second consecutive game.
As has been the strategy for most of the season, Coach Tim Wheaton replaced the first-string forward line of co-captain Beth Zotter, Totman and Yenne with junior forward Ashley Mattison and sophomore forwards Colleen Moore and Caitlin Costello.
In the 78th minute, Mattison and Moore--who set up a score for Harvard against Cornell--teamed up for the Crimson's third goal of the day. Mattison took a pass from Moore, knocking it past the Eagle goaltender for the score. Berman also assisted on the play, her second on the day.
Then, seven minutes later, the fresh forward line struck again. Moore dished off a pass to Costello, who netted Harvard's fourth and final goal of the afternoon. Freshman forward Caitlin Butler also was credited with an assist.
"Every game we've brought in a second set of three forwards, and they've just been incredible," Larson said. "[Moore, Mattison and Costello] have battled every game and have been outstanding. They have really worked their butts off."
