Harvard’s only corner goals of the season came in succession against Yale.

“We didn’t score on them,” Pell said of Harvard’s corners yesterday. “The timing of the pullout and the stop, we’re definitely working on them.”

Harvard’s corners and its first-half play are two areas with room for improvement.

“We need to start off playing well,” Park said. “We can’t be taking a whole half to warm up.”

But based on its past performance, the Crimson thinks the first half woes will go away. Harvard’s return to its homefield after four straight games on the road is expected to be a boost.

The Crimson will play Boston College in its final tuneup for Princeton on Wednesday. The Eagles (7-6) have had an up-and-down season.

“This is a great opporunity to play on our home turf, and the Wednesday game will be good preperation,” Park said. “We played [a complete game] against Michigan and Michigan State and we really need to get back to that level.”
