...from a year ago, Harvard and Princeton split a doubleheader, the third consecutive twinbill split for the Crimson. The Tigers took game one, 6-4, in extra innings behind a complete-game effort from Steven Miller, while Shawn Haviland led Harvard to a 6-3 victory in the second matchup. But neither team seemed close to last spring’s championship form, and, in the frigid temperatures, neither team seemed able to really heat up.
