Harvard Never Trails in 6-5 Victory Over Providence

CAMBRIDGE, Mass -The Harvard Crimson (22-12-1) took a 2-0 lead in the first inning and never trailed from there on the way to a 6-5 win against the Providence Friars (12-24) on Tuesday. This brings the all-time series to 15-23-1, led by the Friars. 

Sophomore Katie Arrambide (6-2) picked up the victory out of the bullpen for Harvard (22-12-1).

In the batter's box, the Crimson were paced by junior Allison O'Heany, who went 2-for-3 on the day with a double and three RBI. Senior Allison Heffley put together a standout day at the dish as well, going 1-for-2 with a double, a walk and an RBI.
