The Crimson sustained its rise up the Ivy League standings during the 2023 season, finishing in second place in the conference – its highest finish since 2015 – after coming in third in 2022 and fourth in 2021. Harvard qualified for the inaugural Ivy League Tournament behind its second-place finish. Alessandro Arlotti ’25 earned Ivy League Offensive Player of the Year honors while the Crimson totaled five All-Ivy honorees and six Academic All-District selections.

Harvard continued its upward ascent during the 2022 season, posting a 9-4-4 record and challenging for a berth in the NCAA tournament. Harvard closed the season unbeaten in its last eight games (5-0-3) and undefeated in its last six Ivy League contests (3-0-3).
