W. Tennis Wants Sole Possession of Ivy Title

Ghazal, in the No. 4 slot, battled her way to a win over freshman Andrea Goldberg in three sets, 6-4, 3-6, 6-1. Broughton rounded out the singles wins, defeating Susie Hiniker, 6-3, 6-4.

Wang and McGinty were the only blemishes on the singles matches for the Crimson, as McGinty fell in three sets to Lauren Muehl, 7-5, 4-6, 6-2.

Wang, who returned recently from the sidelines with an almost career-ending shoulder injury, was unable to complete her match against Khanlarian, retiring in the first set.

"I won't be playing tomorrow," Wang said. "I'd like to be back for the regionals, so I'm taking it day by day. I'm giving myself a chance to relax, and hopefully I'll be ready by then."

Despite the presence of stellar players and a decent Ivy record, Dartmouth doesn't seem to be on the same level as the Crimson. With the packed schedule Harvard has faced all season, this final match should not worry the Crimson.

"We're expecting a tough match against Dartmouth tomorrow, but I think we definitely have the momentum right now. Our confidence has been building with each match," Ghazal said. "We've played and we definitely feel ready to take sole possession of the Ivy crown tomorrow. But we're not expecting to take it without a fight."

So Dartmouth beware. The Crimson doesn't want to share.
