...Crimson had a well-balanced attack on Saturday, taking advantage of the Big Red offensively and defensively. Harvard had a 38-36 advantage over Cornell in kills, along with a 59-48 advantage in digs.

The Big Green’s junior forward Adam Estoclet scored off a power play at 11:07, and senior forward Joe Gaudet made the score line 5-3 at 13:31 in the third...
