Whatever it was, senior Ian Kennish helped the Crimson crawl back to respectability, his garbage goal with 1:35 left in the first helped ease Harvard into the first intermission tied at 2-2, and when Harvard scored the game's next three goals--two of them coming from the trademark finishes of junior Steve Martins--it was surely all she wrote, warm-up-the-bus time...
