...Smith thought the Crimson could have done a better job containing a good shooter.“[Van Horne] is a three-point shooter,” Delaney-Smith said. “The [scouting report] was to not let her have open threes, so that was just a mental breakdown.”Yale’s long-range shooters cooled down in the second half, but with six minutes remaining, Harvard’s lead was still only five.
