...certainly lived up to its billing in disrupting the Crimson’s offensive scheme from start to finish. Harvard expected to counter Smith with some star power of its own, but co-captain Emily Tay, who poured in a career-high 34 points last Saturday against Yale, was held to just seven points on 3-of-8 shooting and didn’t score her first basket until 12 minutes remained in the contest...
