Having not tallied a goal all season before the road trip, Fisher would at first glance appear to be an unlikely candidate to strike twice and account for the entire Crimson offense on the day.

But she had proven herself to be a playmaker in earlier action, and came as close to scoring as any Crimson player in the game against Brown. Fisher was bound to become an impact player at some point--the only question was when.

Fisher's first career goal finally came 17 minutes into the first half. Junior forward Colleen Moore set up the scoring chance by sending the ball to Fisher just outside the left side of the box, Fisher delivered a hard shot across to the right, past the diving Lion keeper. Westfall earned the other assist on the goal.

With all the injuries the team has suffered as of late, Fisher's early strike was a badly needed lift. The latest causality had been sophomore midfielder Orly Ripmaster, who missed the game because of a concussion sustained in practice.

"It's definitely been harder on us, since our leading scorer from last year, Beth Totman, has been out," Fisher said. "We especially had trouble finishing in this game."

Loyola Marymount came back and tied the game in the 41st minute when Lion forward Kerri Tanksley won the ball in the air and deflected a header off a Crimson defender and into the net.

But the Crimson would rebound and control the game from then on. After a relatively even first half, Harvard outshot the Lions 7-3 in the second.

In the 60th minute, Fisher struck again. With a free kick outside of the 18, senior midfielder Meredith Stewart set up Fisher in front of the net. Fisher headed the ball off the inside part of the left post for the eventual game-winner.
