The Crimson went on to drop third and fourth singles, but refused to go away. With the support of her teammates, Oosterhout completed a three-set comeback against BC senior Asiya Dair.

“A lot of that goes to the team’s support,” Oosterhout said, “We have a few injured players even though they really can’t be on the court with us they really support with the cheering and it gets us all pumped up.”

Oosterhout rode the encouragement well, taking the subsequent sets 6-3, 6-4, en route to a first singles victory.

Ringblom built her own comeback as well. After falling in the first set 6-1, Ringblom rebounded in the second set with a 7-5 victory. Eagles sophomore Kylie Wilcox stood strong, however, taking the final set 6-4.

In sixth singles, Jasper fell in the first set 6-3. She evened up the match with a 6-3 win in the second set before falling 6-3 in the third set.

“Getting that last ball and that last deuce point, that’s [always] a turning point,” said Oosterhout.

Despite a tough loss, Harvard remains positive looking forward to Ivy League play.

“I think this weekend was good overall,” Oosterhout said. “And I think if we keep improving on it we’ll do well in Ivies. I think we really just have to focus on our matches coming up, especially during Spring Break. I think if we keep improving we’ll be in a good place.”
