A win over the Minutemen would confirm what many on the team have believed for two seasonsthat the Crimson has what it takes to compete for the Eastern Championships and an NCAA berth. But even as the team continues to improve, Floerchinger expects the Minutemen-and the rest of Harvards local competition-to adjust.
I dont believe for a second that UMass or anyone else will stand still, Floerchinger said. Its a constantly evolving landscape were facing. The summit hasnt been reached here, the summit keeps moving.
The Crimson will play two early games against BC and MIT at MIT on Saturday, and then return home to Blodgett Pool to face the Minutemen at 9 p.m.
