Moreover, the battlefield is a large platform that has been tilted 80°, a nearly vertical position. That gives the audience a unique, God's-eye view of the action...
With three seconds left in the highly-anticipated matchup—and after six lead changes and seven ties—Holsey sunk two free throws to cap a furious Harvard rally in the final eight minutes. Quaker senior Karen Habrukowich missed a three at the buzzer to end the game...
