...defensive department that has been a weakness all year—guarding the three-point shot. For the season, Harvard allowed opponents to shoot 37 percent from three-point range and connect on an average of 7.7 threes per contest. The Crimson, meanwhile, shot 32 percent from behind the arc, and averaged 4.8 three-point field goals per game. But Harvard’s perimeter defense snuffed Columbia’s long-range attack, holding the Lions to a 7-of-19 connect rate from downtown, and just 3-of-13 in the first half. “The thing...

...Everyone on this team, all the way down the bench, is so amazing,” Knox said. “To make the most of the minutes I got was really exciting.” In the second half, Knox came up big again from beyond the arc, this time to give the Crimson its largest lead of the game (13) with 11:35 to play. In the early going, it seemed as though the road to the Big Dance might prove a bit rockier than expected. Still technically in the Ivy title hunt, Cornell opened the game with...
