Riding this current three-game win streak, the Crimson hopes to close out its Ivy League season with a victory over Dartmouth this Wednesday in Hanover. Even though Princeton has the Ivy title wrapped up, the Crimson wants to end the season on a positive note.

"We still want to finish the season strong," Bajin said. "We just have to go in there, not be too overconfident, and just get the job done."

Coming off a close road victory over Pennsylvania last Saturday, the potent Crimson roster smothered the injury-plagued Bears, clinching the victory before the doubles portion of the match even started.

The top three seeds for the women easily defeated their opponents, each grabbing her singles victory in straight sets to open up an early 3-0 lead for Harvard. The quick start set the tempo for the rest of the day, as the Crimson never relinquished the lead in the match.

Bajin and Jain continued their impressive play and dismantled Brown's top players, each taking their match with a pair of 6-2 sets. Ghazal defeated Irene Adsuar, 6-4, 6-1 at the three spot, setting up the rest of the team for the singles sweep.

The remainder of singles play, however, proved more difficult for the Crimson. The Bears fought back despite the early deficit, stretching the remaining three singles matches to three sets.

Naqushbandi fell to Brown's Caroline Casey in Harvard's only loss of the day. After dropping the first set, Naqushbandi was unable to complete a second-set comeback, falling, 6-3, 3-6, 6-2. Sophomore Sarah McGinty picked up the slack in her match, finding her rhythm after struggling in the first-set to take a three-set victory.
