...Princeton since the 80’s when sophomore guard Drew Housman’s layup with 14:53 left in the second half gave the Crimson a 42-34 lead. Harvard had been strong on both ends of the floor and its Achilles’ heel—three-point shooting defense—appeared to have been fixed, as the Tigers had made only 6-of-17 shots from long range up to that point. What’s more, Jadwin Gym was not as loud as it had been in years past, with only 2,810 fans...
...think it didn’t get away from us either night—it was good to see we could put out the effort back-to-back.”But to get a victory, Harvard must put it all together.

...Brennan Votel had a career-high 11 points, while Grandieri and center Steve Danley each had 10. Captain guard Jim Goffredo led Harvard with 14 points, but shot only 5-of-19 from the floor. His backcourt mate, sophomore Drew Housman, had a relatively quiet night with just nine points, compared to his career-high 33-point outburst the night before at Princeton.

...even more heartbreaking given the circumstances.”Harvard appeared to have the Jadwin riddle solved as the second half started, jumping out to a 42-34 lead over the first three minutes of the frame. By switching from man-to-man to an extended 3-2 zone, the Crimson was able to contain the sharp-shooting Princeton squad, which shot 6-of-14 from three-point range in the first half. The only problem for Harvard: with the exception of two free throws from captain Jim Goffredo, nobody but Housman scored for the rest of the half...
...demons of Jadwin past worked to defeat the Crimson. Harvard appeared to have the Jadwin riddle solved as the second half started, jumping out to a 42-34 lead over the first three minutes of the frame. By switching from man-to-man to an extended 3-2 zone, the Crimson was able to contain the sharp-shooting Princeton squad, who shot 6-of-14 from three-point range in the first half. Coupled with stellar offensive play from Harvard, the Crimson built upon its halftime lead of 32-29. The only problem for Harvard: with the exception...
