With the shot clock running down, he drove and kicked to Pusar, who buried a three from the corner, making it 64-53 with 2:17 left. Santa Clara kept at it, but solid free throw shooting by the home team kept it at least a two-possession contest to the end. In the first half, Harvard came out smoking and led by double figures for most of the half before the Broncos rallied to cut the deficit...
