The Crimson reached halftime of the close contest trailing 7-6. “I thought in the first half we did a good job controlling the tempo,” Bobzin said. “We played with them. They scored, we scored. We didn’t really make any mistakes.” Harvard began the second half just as it had the entire first stanza—neck and neck with the Tigers. Princeton scored...
