Watch Live Stats Game Notes

PROVIDENCE, R.I. – The Brown women's lacrosse team will take on Harvard this Saturday, April 30 at 2 p.m. in the Ivy League regular season finale with a postseason berth on the line.

Brown and Harvard are tied for third in the Ivy standings at 3-3. The winner of Saturday's game will qualify for the Ivy League Tournament, while the loser will likely be out of the running for a postseason appearance.

The game will be streamed live on ESPN+.

Scouting the Bears (7-7, 3-3 Ivy)

With a win at Harvard, Brown would claim the No. 3 seed in the Ivy League Tournament, qualifying for the first time since its inception in 2010. With a loss, the Bears would only qualify if both Cornell and Penn lose their games this week as well. In that scenario, Brown would be the No. 4 seed.
The Bears have three players in the top 10 of the Ivy League in total points. Mia Mascone (44) is fourth, with Claire Jeschke (43) sixth and Maggie Fowler (35) ninth.
Over the last two games, in which the Bears are 2-0, Jeschke has led the team with eight points from seven goals and one assist. Fowler has posted eight points from five goals and three assists and Mascone has seven from one goal and six assists.

Scouting the Crimson (6-7, 3-3 Ivy)

On the other side, Harvard is trying to qualify for the Ivy Tournament for the first time since 2017. That year, they finished 4-3 in league play and lost to Cornell in the tournament semifinals.
Callie Hem has led the Crimson this season wit 38 points from 29 goals and nine assists. Caroline Mullahy has a team-high 14 assists.
Harvard's 10.75 goals against average is the best in the Ivy League and is in big thanks to Chloe Provenzano and her 9.87 goals against average and .427 save percentage.

Series History

The Crimson own the all-time series, but Brown took the most recent matchup 10-9 in 2019.
Harvard led 6-3 at halftime, but four straight goals to end the game gave the Bears the victory. Jeschke tallied the game-winner with three minutes remaining.
