When the Harvard women's soccer team takes the field today, it will be looking for more than just an upset against the No. 12 Hartford Hawks; it will be looking for revenge.

Last year the Crimson (4-1, 2-0 Ivy) were dealt a painful 3-0 loss at the hands of the talented Hawks (5-1-1) that knocked it from the NCAA tournament and ended its season. It was the second loss to Hartford for Harvard on the season.

In that contest, the Crimson's senior laden squad simply could not stop the talented Hawks.

Now, with a much less experienced team, Harvard will look to surprise the Hawks with its solid core of seniors and its talented freshman class.

The Crimson--ranked No. 24 in the country in the latest Soccer Times poll--comes into the contest fresh from a 1-0 victory at Yale in women soccer's version of The Game.

Leading the Crimson against the Bulldogs was freshman forward Joey Yenne who scored the game's lone goal in the 64th minute of the gridlocked match.

Yenne's goal not only propelled the Crimson to its second consecutive conference win it also earned her Ivy League Rookie of the Week honors.

Although Harvard enters the game playing well, it will have its hands full against a stellar Hartford team.

Leading the Hawks is its imposing goaltender, senior Ingrid Sternhoff. Through seven games Sternhoff has allowed just three goals, posting four shutouts for an incredible 0.43 goals against average.
