Wheeler’s jumper enlivened the crowd and the Crimson, and the slim halftime lead served as a wakeup call for the defending league champions. After Cornell kept pace with Harvard’s two wins with a Princeton-Penn sweep on the road, the two teams are tied atop the Ancient Eight standings with matching 5-1 records. The Crimson now faces...
