The Mayo team faced Harvard University in a fiercely contested match played in front of a lively crowd of 2,500 spectators. Despite Harvard’s strong efforts during an exhilarating match, Mayo triumphed with a 4-2 victory in the final chukker (a timed period in a polo match, typically lasting around 7.5 minutes).
