...first half. On the other end, an excellent Crimson defense held the visitors to just 38.7 percent field-goal shooting after the break. “In the second half, we were able to stretch things out and I thought our defense was tremendous. I thought that was the key for us. I was really pleased for us to get another win under our belt coming off a good win at Penn,” Harvard coach Tommy Amaker said.

Harvard responded with a layup from Pusar, and the two teams continued trading baskets throughout the rest of the half. Free throw shooting proved to be key in the final stretch, with the Crimson going 14-for-17 compared to Cornell’s 8-for-14. Cornell shot a measly 56.3 percent from the free throw line for the game. Housman converted a layup with two minutes left to give Harvard its final basket. Down...
