The article focuses on the Bantams’ win streak:

The Bantams have not lost a match since a tense afternoon against Harvard on Feb. 22, 1998. The U.C.L.A. men’s basketball team’s 88 consecutive wins and the North Carolina women’s soccer team’s 92-game streak are dwarfed by comparison. As Trinity prepares for its 10th straight national title defense this weekend, beginning with a match against Dartmouth on Friday, the Bantams sit poised for their 200th consecutive victory.

Today, Trinity swept Dartmouth to advance to the semifinals of the Potter Cup.

Williams (W) @ Wesleyan, 9-0:

Mount Holyoke’s top player, Pam Anckermann, earned the team’s sole victory.  After dropping the first game, she rebounded and won the next three games.  With the victory, Anckermann concluded the regular season with a 20-1 record. Last season, Anckermann concluded the season ranked 28th in the country.  Jennifer Gemmell, Cornell’s current third-ranked player, concluded the 2007-2008 season ranked 29th in the nation.  Of last year’s All-Americans (top twenty players in the nation), Anckermann only faced Williams’ Toby Eyre.  With strong team and individual tournament performances, Anckermann may earn All-American honors.
