After a fast start at home to kick off Ivy League play, the Harvard women’s volleyball team (8-6, 3-2 Ivy) stumbled on its first road trip of the conference season, losing via sweep to Princeton (5-9, 3-2 Ivy) and dropping a tight, five set match to UPenn (9-6, 3-3 Ivy). This weekend left the Crimson still looking for its first win in a true road game, as the team fell to 0-4 when not defending its home turf. Conversely, Harvard has valiantly defended the halls of  the Malkin Athletic Center, posting an impressive 6-0 record while playing in Harvard Square.
