They get their first chance today at Jordan Field against Providence.
The Friars roll into town riding a wave of momentum that will be tough for the battered Crimson to match. Providence appeared to be in top form on Sunday afternoon, convincingly defeating the Colgate by a score of 5-1.
The Friars' senior forward Carrie Leoncavallo notched two unassisted goals on the afternoon, and junior goalkeeper Heather Tattersall, in her first start of the season, allowed just one Colgate goal on 11 shots and made four saves.
Cowan will also have her hands full in goal for the Crimson, facing a Providence offensive attack that tallied 33 shots on goal Sunday afternoon.
Nagle says she is fully confident that the squad will return to its winning ways.
"We'll come out more pumped to play well," she said.
But Nagle, Cowan and the team will be facing a Providence squad anxious to salvage some dignity from an entirely lost season. This is a squad anxious to kick this Harvard team while it's down.
Cowan says she won't let it happen.
