As for the offense, Harvard will probably continue to experiment with a three-forward line that proved successful both in a recent 2-0 West Coast swing and against BC.
Sophomores Joey Yenne and Beth Totman and junior Colleen Moore have shared time and space up front, and the results have been overwhelmingly positive. The three-forward alignment helped the Crimson outshoot the high-powered BC air attack, 22-17, on Wednesday.
"It's something that we could switch in the middle of a game," McCarthy said. "It's just a matter of whatever's working at the time."
Totman and Yenne have contributed 19 and 18 points, respectively. Moore has 7 goals and 4 assists.
Harvard will also host Davidson on Sunday as part of a tournament which traditionally features two local teams and two top-caliber teams from outside the area.
The Wildcats have an impressive 9-3 record, and are ranked No. 10 in the South region. They recently had a two-game winning streak snapped by Georgia Southern, but are still enjoying one of their best starts in recent years.
"They're really good within their region," Stewart said. "They play good teams well, and we'll have to play well to beat them."
