    Let \(M\) be a manifold with complete bundle-like metric \(g_M\). Let \(\mathcal F\) be a Riemannian foliation of \(M\) with finite energy. Assume that the Ricci curvature \(\rho^M\) on \(M\) is non-negative and the transversal scalar curvature is non-positive. Then if \(\mathcal F\) is harmonic then \(\mathcal F\) is totally geodesic.
