Although the big men put together one of their stronger rebounding performances of the season, helping the Crimson maintain a 12-board edge over the Bears, the lack of any sort of back-to-the-basket offensive attack was fatal. With no way to slow down their own offense by pounding the ball inside, Harvard was forced to speed its game up to match Brown’s quick-tempo attack, allowing it to comfortably dictate the pace of the contest.
