One year later, at Harvard?...
...free throw column, where the Crimson shot 34 free throws to just six for the Wildcats. The Harvard players were also extraordinarily accurate, making 29 of their attempts, while New Hampshire was just 2-6. Junior guard Jim Goffredo led the way for Harvard, shooting a perfect 12-12 from the line. “That was our game plan,” said Cusworth. “We knew we had the size, so we planned on attacking the basket.” Cusworth more than doubled his season total for free throws made, as he entered the game...
