Nagle scored nine goals on the season and 25 for her career to place her fourth on the all-time Harvard goal-scoring list. Her proficiency in finishing was evident when she earned a hat trick in Harvard's 5-1 victory over Cornell, which avenged a 1-0 loss from last season.

McDavitt earned a hat trick in her debut against Vermont, and never let down for the rest of the season. McDavitt, as well as sophomore forward Philomena Gambale who scored seven goals off the bench, were capable of making something out of nothing by beating three or four defenders while breaking towards the net. McDavitt did just that when she assisted on Badawy's game-tying goal against Wake Forest.

Freshman keeper Katie Zacarian was also a second-team All-Ivy selection. Like Anya Cowan '99 before her, Zacarian excelled as a freshman starter.

She earned six shutouts in her rookie season, including three straight against Northeastern, Yale and Boston College. Her best game may have been a 1-0 double overtime loss against then-No. 9 UMass in which she kept Harvard in the game despite being outshot 22-5.

"Katie came in having tremendous international experience," Caples said. "She is very talented with unlimited potential. I can't say enough about her."

In the off-season, Harvard will relish in the success of this season, while looking ahead to make another run in 2001.

"This was a fun, special year," Caples said. "This was a great team, that has great potential for the future. The chemistry was there. The players were committed to each other enabled them to achieve success. They knew what we could accomplish."
