Against a team like that you can’t make mistakes against them and expect them not to score. We put ourselves in a hole pretty early.” Junior Evan Calvert finally put Harvard on the board with 5:03 left in the period on an assist by junior Greg Cohen, but the Pride responded with three unanswered goals in the second quarter...
