Turning towards net, Ripmaster took a couple of touches and struck a high shot to beat jumping goalie Elise Roy.

With a 2-0 halftime lead, Harvard's Ivy championship seemed secure, but Wheaton chose to talk about something else at halftime.

"We were slow all first half and weren't winning balls that were ours," Wheaton said. "We said that we have great pride in ourselves a program, and when we step on the field we show the world how hard we have worked and how much it matters to us. We didn't feel like we'd done that, and it was our goal to do just that in the second half--I think we did it."

Wheaton's words certainly struck a chord with the team, as the Crimson struck in the fifth and sixth minute of the second half to seal the Ivy title.

In the 51st minute, Totman found freshman forward Joey Yenne making a slicing run across the top of the box.

From thirty yards out on the right side, Totman threaded a ball through a couple of Brown defenders and into the box. Yenne received the ball a few yards inside the box, made a touch toward the goal and put it in the left side of the net.

"I just saw the space for her [Yenne] to run into," Totman said. "I just kind of knew she was going of be there. That game we were working well together, so I just played it to space hoping she would get there, and she did. She made a really great run."

Less than a minute later, Harvard was back on top of the Brown defense.
