"Our defense all over the field was great," Christino said. "Sometimes we have trouble with transitional defense, but it went well today."
Yet within two minutes of the Crimson's acquisition of the lead, Yale jumped on top with two quick stick goals from Melniker and Petrovick. An unassisted goal from Harper, her fifth goal of the day, tied the game at nine with eight minutes remaining.
