...game, its opponents had shot only 36 percent from the field. Harvard struggled to keep up its suffocating defense in the first half, allowing UC Davis to connect on 13-of-22 opportunities—a 59 percent clip. “In the locker room at halftime, the sentiment was that the first half was some of the worst basketball we had played [this year],” Cusworth said. “We were really struggling on defense, we did not have the intensity or the energy that we had [earlier this season].” The defense...
