Harvard played well against some of the top teams in the country last season, only to fall apart in the final minutes and settle for moral wins.

If this season is going to be any different, this team will know one way or the other by next Monday.

"I feel like the competition has gotten progressively harder every game," Zacarian said. "It's a great way to start the season, and I think we're ready for the challenge next week."

In many ways, the Crimson's scrappy, come-from-behind victory and dominating performance in overtime said more about this team than a one-sided blowout could ever reveal.

"To come back from a one-goal--let alone a two-goal--deficit shows a lot of experience and character," Zacarian said. "To come back from any sort of deficit gives us a lot of confidence heading into next week."

In its final Ivy game last season, Harvard scored a dramatic 3-2 overtime victory at Brown.

The game meant nothing to Harvard, but stole sole possession of the Ivy title away from Brown on a goal by senior co-captain Maisa Badawy with 10 seconds remaining in overtime.
