Don’t Ivies play DHers on Saturday and Sunday if it works geographically? For example Harvard would play a DH against Princeton on Saturday and a DH against Penn on Sunday. Princeton and Penn are only 45 miles apart.
Cornell is the only Ivy that isn’t anywhere near another. Dartmouth is 125 miles from Harvard. But Brown and Harvard are a better weekend trip. They’re only 45 miles part.

Almost, but not quite right. Through 2017, the Ivy played four game conference weekends. DH Saturday, DH Sunday. One 9, one 7 inning game on both days. They also had two divisions. Out of division they would often split weekend venues. In 2018 they eliminated the divisions and went to a three game weekend format, one day being a DH, usually Saturday. You play one team per weekend, you wouldn't typically play one place on Saturday and a different place on Sunday. Same place all weekend.
