Crimson Edged by Yale, Shuts Out Brown

Harvard Highlights Weekend With Sweep
Last season, the Crimson women’s volleyball team defeated Columbia in two meetings but lost to Cornell twice. This season, Harvard had it out for the New York teams and entered each contest looking to prove that it is the better squad—and did so in a weekend sweep at the Malkin Athletic Center. The Crimson (10-11, 6-4 Ivy) overcame Columbia (11-10, 2-6) on Friday night and shellacked Cornell (6-15, 3-7) on Saturday.
Crimson Sweeps Before Getting Swept
After coming up short against Ivy League-leading Penn (16-4, 7-0) 3-1, the Harvard volleyball team (8-11, 4-4 Ivy League) sought to go over .500 in conference play when it took a two-game road trip against Brown (5-13, 1-6) and Yale (18-4, 6-1) this weekend.
