Playing in Boston, the Big Green (17-8, 4-3 Ivy) were surprised by an improved Husky team. "The played a much quicker offense than what we saw before," Coach Ann Marie Larese said, referring to Dartmouth's three game win over the Huskies earlier in the season. The match opened up with eight rotations without a point being scored, but Dartmouth's tenacity pulled them through. "We played aggressively the whole time," Larese said.
