...game’s final stretch. Over those five minutes, Harvard turned the ball over three times and botched two crucial layups. When Rollins’ free throw trickled in at 3:21 to end the drought, the Crimson was staring at a 55-44 deficit. A steal-foul attempt by Harvard put the Tigers on the line 13 times in the final two minutes, but Princeton went a perfect 13-of-13 from the charity stripe to bury any Crimson hope of a last-second comeback in New Jersey. “We’ve been having...
...build an insurmountable lead, as the Quakers cruised to an 81-68 win over the Crimson at Lavietes Pavilion on Saturday night.Harvard (12-9, 4-4) went scoreless for the first 6:32 of the contest, until a backdoor cut led to a layup and a foul for freshman point guard Drew Housman. That three-point play failed to spark the lifeless Crimson offense, as Harvard scored just four more points over the next seven minutes of the half.“We should have been ready for it,” Housman said. “We can?...

Fighting for the offensive rebound, Cusworth reached over the back of Big Red forward Andrew Naeve in an attempt to rip the ball away, a violation that got Cusworth whistled for his fifth personal foul and prematurely ended his night. The play was a classic example of a foul borne completely of frustration, and it summed up the way Cusworth’s season has gone since he returned from a fractured left hand for the start of the Ivy slate on January 13.

...post game. I haven’t had a true low post player in 20 years here. But you can’t pound these kids.”With a solid rotation of Rollins, Budischak, Lackner, freshman Emma Moretzsohn, and sophomore Lauren Fried, Harvard rarely runs into foul trouble and can set up in three-forward sets that exploit smaller defensive units. Last year, the perimeter-oriented McCaffery was often forced to play the power forward slot. This year, the 6’1 forward has moved to the three-spot on the perimeter, creating matchup problems for smaller...
