...Cusworth and captain Matt Stehle ’06, the motivating factor behind Harvard’s preseason No. 2 ranking, could not prevent the Crimson’s best shot in years at the Ivy title from flaming out in a late-season eight-game league losing streak.

...think we started to panic and get away from the things that had gotten us to that point.”Two weeks and two more losses later, Harvard dropped another agonizing contest in the final minute to the Quakers at the Palestra. The losing streak then reached its ugliest point on the very next night in a 27-point throttling at the hands of Princeton.

Still, the Big Red managed to tally two scores in less than three...
...more goals.Harvard, with its 14-4-0 record, has beaten Fairfield and Brown—two teams still alive for the championship—by a combined score of 8-3. And don’t forget, the Crimson is currently on a nine-game winning streak. So Harvard might not romp, but it will definitely challenge the Bruins.The other favorable result in the bracket might take a little more luck, but is still possible. First of all, any team that has made it to the second round of the NCAA Tournament is not a joke—despite...
