...second half, Wisconsin controlled possession again, as the Crimson failed to tally a single shot on goal in the second frame. And with two minutes to play, the Panthers looked to have the equalizer, but Mann stood in the team’s way, diving out to block the shot and preserve Harvard’s second consecutive victory.As Harvard edges closer to its Ivy League slate, it will need to correct these flaws and find a consistency it has lacked so far.“You can’t keep playing like that each game...
