No new teams broke into the top five this week, but the top four squads traded places in a weekend filled with crushing victories and tough defeats.
5. Women’s Volleyball (10-7, 3-4 Ivy)
Harvard lost to Cornell and defeated Columbia last weekend. Taylor Docter smacked the Lions out of the gym, recording five aces in the league victory.
Previous Rank: 5
4. Women’s Tennis
The Crimson did not see any action last week. The team will compete at the ITA Regional Tournament in New Haven, Connecticut this weekend.
3. Sailing
The sailing team overcame last week’s shipwreck to take third place at the Lark Invitational at Tufts. The team will compete in five regattas next weekend.
Previous Rank: 4
2. Women’s Golf
The Crimson took second place in the Harvard Invitational, falling to Penn by just 5 strokes. The rain and wind were unforgiving, as battling the elements is not something that five of the team’s players from California are used to.
Previous Rank: 1
1. Football (4-1, 3-0 Ivy)
The Crimson continues to roll, picking up its fourth consecutive victory last weekend. Colton Chapple was spectacular again, throwing for five touchdowns. The Crimson battle Princeton on Saturday in a game that could be less competitive than Shaq in a free throw shooting competition.
