If only Ivy League competition were this easy.
The Harvard women's volleyball team crushed both of its opponents this weekend, steam-rolling Sacred Heart, 3-0 (15-6, 15-3, 15-13) on Friday, then obliterating Marist, 3-0 (15-2, 15-3, 15-3) on Saturday.
Both matches were useful for additional practice before the upcoming Ivy League tournament, in which the Crimson (14-12, 2-5 Ivy) will be the No. 7 seed.
By finishing with a 2-5 Ivy record, Harvard earned a battle with No.2 seed Pennsylvania (20-7, 5-2 Ivy) in the first round of the tournament this Friday.
Las t month, the Quakers and the Crimson squared off at the MAC, with Penn sweeping Harvard in three games (15-12, 15-11,15-13).
"We can't make any mistakes," said Harvard Coach Jennifer Weiss. "Even though [Sacred Heart and Marist] are not at Penn's level, our mental preparation should be the same every time we go out there."
