Harvard Cruises to Third Conference Win

Lee shot high into the left side of the net, tallying one of his three scores on the evening.

The offense had a number of great pass plays throughout the game that allowed it to transition quickly and catch the Camels off guard.

“We were moving the ball around well tonight,” DiSilvestro said. “My teammates were setting me up with some great passing and assists that made it easier to score.”

The Crimson held a 9-4 lead beginning the fourth period.

Harvard junior Alex Thompson converted on a pass from freshman Max Eliot 16 seconds into play.

Less than a minute later, DiSilvestro took the ball down the pool with no defenseman between him and the Connecticut College goalie.

DiSilvestro threw a few fakes and then rocketed the ball overtop a ducking keeper.

Katzer and DiSilvestro would each tally another goal before the end of the game, bringing the Crimson’s final margin of victory to 9 goals.

Harvard looks to carry momentum from this game into a matchup against Ivy rival Brown this weekend.

“We are really looking forward to this weekend,” Atkinson said. “We’re planning to come out and show what we have been training for and that is the focus of the team right now.”

The Crimson remains home this Saturday to face Brown in Blodgett Pool for a 4:30pm game start time.

Sunday afternoon Harvard will take on Iona at 2:30 pm, also at Blodgett.

The Harvard men’s water polo team returned home to Blodgett Pool last night after a string of away games, and defeated CPWA opponent, the Connecticut College Camels, 13-4.

With this win, the Crimson extends its Northern Division winning record to 3-0 on the season, and gains momentum before a much anticipated weekend match-up against Brown.

The Crimson opened up a solid 4-1 lead in the first six minutes of play. Harvard held its three goal lead through most of the first period, but Connecticut College battled back, scoring with just over a minute to play in the quarter.
