WINNING INTENSITY. Members of the hotter-than-hot Crimson field hockey team take the opportunity to catch their breath as their coach instructs them on the next play in a game against Quinnipiac College, which ended up in a 1-0 shutout for Harvard.

WHOOPS! After Maisa Badawy '01 (on ground) takes a tumble going after the ball, an opposing player from Quinnipiac College is tripped up by the fallen warrior. Meanwhile, Crimson's Katie Schoolwerth (standing) considers taking advantage of the situation.

THERE IT IS! As the colliders get their bearings, Schoolwerth spots the obscure object of desire and takes off after it.

TAKING CONTROL. Schoolwerth, followed closely by Badawy, takes charge of the errant ball, while their opponent looks on helplessly and haplessly. Harvard went on to win the Oct. 6 match 1-0.Photos by Rose Lincoln
