Harvard women’s lacrosse will travel to Durham to play the University of New Hampshire Wildcats at Tucker Field, with the game scheduled for a 4:00 p.m. start on April 7 and streaming live on AmericaEast.tv.
The matchup comes as Harvard looks to build on recent momentum, having won three of its last four games. The Crimson have a strong track record against the Wildcats, winning their last seven meetings since 2010. Last season, Harvard defeated UNH at Jordan Field by a score of 20-4.
In their most recent game, Harvard fell to Penn in an Ivy League contest. Grace Mullahy led the team with a hat trick and an assist for four points. Charlotte Hodgson contributed two goals and an assist while collecting four ground balls. Callie and Cecelia Batchelder each added a goal and an assist, and goalkeeper Emma Barkauskas made eight saves.
Charlotte Hodgson currently leads the team in goals with 21 this season, followed closely by Callie Batchelder and Grace Mullahy with 20 each. Batchelder has also recorded both a seven-point game and a nine-point game this year, now leading the team in points with her combined goals and assists.
Looking back at last season, Harvard was consistently ranked among the top 25 teams nationally. The Crimson opened that campaign with wins over UAlbany, No. 15 Navy, and No. 23 UConn. Caroline Mullahy stood out by breaking school records for assists while joining Annabel Child as All-Ivy First Team selections; both were named USA Lacrosse All-Americans after receiving honorable mention recognition.
This year’s roster includes eight new members from the Class of 2029, three of whom were recognized in Inside Lacrosse Power 100 rankings: Lexie Koch (No.40), Emerson Midura (honorable mention), and Cecelia Batchelder (honorable mention). Despina Giannakopoulos and Kate Gilliam are set to lead the team as captains this season.
