Zacarian made two saves to record her fifth shutout this season, and freshman Anne Haig saw her first collegiate action late in the game.
Harvard Coach Sue Caples was pleased with the team’s consistent effort early in the first half and thought Pell’s goal was important because it gave the Crimson firm control of the game.
“We came out strong and we were dominating and we were controlling but we weren’t finishing,” Caples said. “It was nice to put one in at the end [of the first half].”
Park also believes that the team is learning to play more consistently at this point in the season.
“[After a 4-2 loss to Dartmouth,] we knew we had to be more consistent and play at a higher level all the time, and we’ve done that,” Park said.
The game against the Friars was originally scheduled for earlier in the season but was postponed after the terrorist attacks of September 11.
Harvard returns to action on Saturday morning when the team travels to Columbia to face off against the Lions.
