"This is probably the best team dynamic that we've had here in a few years," Harper said.
The Crimson is coached by Carole Kleinfelder, who returns for her 22nd year at the helm. Kleinfelder led the Crimson to a national championship in 1990 and is the winningest coach in women's collegiate lacrosse history.
Kleinfelder will focus her team on its next task, a road game against B.C. on Wednesday followed by a difficult contest against Notre Dame at home on Saturday.
"B.C. will be a big game, and we need to be careful to build up confidence heading into this weekend against Notre Dame," Harper said.
The Crimson will look to improve upon its 6-7 showing last season, which included an Ivy record of 3-4.
