Harvard was also pleased with Baizer’s ability to rally from a poor Saturday showing.
“That was phenomenal,” Chiampa said. “That was not her game the first day. It’s just a mental thing. Golf is all mental.”
In stark contrast to the individualistic nature of golf, the Crimson was pleased that it was able to come together as a team, especially on the second day.
“In team golf, every stroke counts,” Chiampa said. “We’re doing a really good job of motivating ourselves and focusing on the team instead of the individual.”
Harvard hopes that its strong play on Sunday bodes well for the Ivy League Championships, which will take place in New Jersey on April 26 and 27.
After finishing behind Dartmouth this weekend, the Crimson has some added incentive to play well at the Championships.
“We want to beat Dartmouth,” Baizer said. “We need to win back the [Harvard-Dartmouth Challenge] Cup. We’d like it to stay in Cambridge for the summer.”
The Crimson had been in possession of the Cup until this weekend.
