...soon as the second half began, the Crimson’s body language changed, and it began quietly scraping at Princeton’s 19-point lead. After a fade-away 12-footer from Tay, a strong layup in the paint from Markley, and a three from freshman guard Brogan Berry, the Harvard side of the bleachers started catching on to its team’s second wind.
