Harvard is looking for its 10th win with two more league games remaining. The Crimson have won nine of their last 11 games with a tie at Brown included in the mix. Tim Schmoll leads the Bay State Crimson with 10 points. Evan Mendez is 8-4-1 with a 1.31 goals against average.

Omsberg Named Ivy Rookie of the Week: Freshman Wyatt Omsberg was named the Ivy League men's soccer Rookie of the Week, after scoring the game-winning goal in overtime for Dartmouth on Saturday night at Columbia. In the 1-0 overtime victory, the Big Green's rookie defender used his 6-4 stature to head a ball into the goal off a corner kick by senior Stefan Defregger. The Waterville, Maine product is the third Big Green freshman named to a weekly league award this season. Omsberg joins Jonathan Nierenberg and Matt Danilack as the other newcomers to make a splash this season. Danilack was also chosen a Player of the Week and joins senior Alex Adelabu with that honor.

Danilack Selected to Academic All-District team: Senior Hugh Danilack was selected to the Capital One Academic All-District men's soccer team, as announced by CoSIDA on Thursday. Danilack joins three other Ivy League student-athletes — Cornell's Tyler Conway, Harvard's Mark Ashby and Brown's Alex Markes — on the District 1 list. First-team Academic All-District ® honorees advance to the Capital One Academic All-America® Team ballot, where first-, second- and third-team All-America honorees will be selected later this month.
