Softball Wins Share of Ivy Title With Sweep

Goldberg and Cooley drove in more runs than Harvard would need, as freshman hurler Kara Brotemarkle shut out the Big Red for her tenth win of the year.

Brotemarkle allowed only three hits and struck out five in the victory.

The Crimson would add two more runs in the final two frames. Sophomore second baseman Sara Williamson sacrificed in sophomore first baseman Tiffany Whitton in the sixth, and sophomore catcher Monica Montijo was brought home on a Goldberg single in the seventh.

"We felt like we were coming into our own I these games, "Whitton said. "We're peaking at just the right time."

Harvard 8, Dartmouth 1

The Harvard bats were lively in the first game, as they helped senior ace Chelsea Thoke beat defending Ivy League Rookie and Player of the Year Christine Quattrocchi.

Wasting no time, the Crimson plated three runs in the first. The two-out rally was started when Quattrocchi lost control and hit Whitton with a pitch.
