The team enjoyed an excellent trip to Ithaca as Harvard coupled an Ivy win against Cornell with a 23-4 decision against Sacred Heart in the following meet. Harvard then fell, 20-7, to a veteran Colum- bia squad to even its Ivy League record at 1-1. Freshman Jasmine McGlade (Boulder, CO) turned in an im- pressive performance against Columbia as she won all three of her bouts in the epée bracket. WOMEN’S ICE HOCKEY (13-1-1, 5-1-0 ECAC) Harvard ran its unbeaten streak to 14 games to start the sea- son, which set the stage for a main-event matchup against Dartmouth on January 11. That game put two of the nation’s top- ranked teams on the Bright Hockey Center ice. Harvard tuned up for the game with a 3-0 win against Ver- mont on January 10. A packed house of more than 1,900 fans came to Bright to see the Crimson take on the Big Green. The crowd was treated to what some deem the best women’s game in the history of the Bright Center, but in the end, it was Dartmouth that came away with a 2-1 victory. Still, Harvard enters the exam break ranked third in the na- tion and second in the ECAC, with a rematch against Dartmouth on the horizon.
