Richard Smith’s goal in the 68th minute against Penn on Sunday was all the Crimson men's soccer team needed, as it went on to win, 1-0, to clinch sole possession of the Ivy League title.

After winning the Ivy League title—and its accompanying NCAA tournament berth—outright on Sunday with a 1-0 victory over Penn, the Harvard men’s soccer team learned last night that it has earned the 10th seed in the tournament.
