Unfortunately for Harvard, another Maryland counterattack proved costly. With freshman defender Richard Smith up-field for a set piece, the Crimson was left shorthanded at the back in the 78th minute. The Terrapins moved the ball to the left, and, from about 30 yards out, midfielder Billy Cortes shifted the ball onto his right foot, before placing it into the bottom right corner...

Unfortunately for the Crimson, Jeffery converted once again, leaving Harvard on the wrong end of a heated contest...
