Second to last in the league in run defense and second in pass defense, Pizzotti will have his hands full if Harvard can’t keep the Tiger D honest with the run.The ground game will be bolstered by the return of sophomore Gino Gordon, who was out nursing an injury last weekend, but leads the team in yards per game.Also resurfacing to aid the offensive attack is sophomore Chris Lorditch, who went down with an ankle sprain in week three at Lafayette...
