CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – After a spectacular 2022 regular season campaign, the Harvard Crimson women's soccer team (11-1-3, 5-0-2 Ivy) was selected to the NCAA Tournament field as a six seed. The Crimson will host the New Hampshire Wildcats at Jordan Field in the first round of the tournament which will take place this Saturday at 5 PM.
Harvard ranked no. 14 in the final RPI poll of the season, which was good enough to earn an at-large bid to the 64-team field. The Crimson will also host a first-round game for the first time since 2014.
Led by the Branca Family Head Coach for Harvard Women's Soccer,
Chris Hamblin, the Crimson's high-powered offense helped it post the best winning percentage since 1999 and an undefeated Ivy League record for the first-time since 2016.
Tickets for the game will be $10.00 for adults and $5.00 for students and children, and can be purchased at the Jordan Field ticket window beginning at 4 pm this Saturday, November 12.
