The Harvard freshman soccer team held on to a 1-0 lead to edge past a Phillips Exeter team which often threatened but never came through yesterday on a wind-and raid-lashed Business School field.
The win, coming on the heels of a 5-0 victory over MIT's freshmen team, boosted the Crimson's season record to 2-0.
