The Harvard men's and women's track teams will head to Philadelphia this weekend for the Outdoor Heptagonals--the biggest meet of the season.

Both teams should be capable of making up for the disappointments they have suffered through the outdoor season thus far.

The women suffered a shocking dual meet loss to Yale in their last major meet on April 22, which snapped an 11-year Crimson win streak against the Bulldogs.

Despite that loss, this his still been a banner year for Harvard women's track. The team had an undefeated indoor season, which culminated with the Crimson's first championship at Indoor Heps since 1990.

And while the outdoor season was sullied by the loss to Yale, the Crimson has still had its moments of triumph. Harvard defeated defending outdoor champion Brown 67-64 in a tri-meet earlier on April 8.

As for the men, the team will look to build on its solid performance against Yale. While the men narrowly lost 84-79, the meet proved that the team is still capable of competing at a high level this season.

Harvard Women

There's a simple reason why the Crimson failed to perform as well as expected against Yale last month: junior captain Brenda Taylor ran only one event.
