“It was a big battle,” Wilkins said. “She always plays a good match.”
Harvard’s sole victory came in the No. 9 spot, where sophomore Stephanie Hendricks defeated Ruth Kelley 9-3, 9-4, 9-5.
The Crimson will have an opportunity for revenge in its season finale Wednesday night, when it hosts the Bulldogs in a contest that will determine the Ivy title.
Both teams are undefeated in league play.
“Expect a much closer match on Wednesday,” Wilkins added. “We’re going to completely bushwhack them.”
