...lead and erase Harvard’s once double-digit advantage. “We gave up a [few] too many open looks from the three-point line,” Pusar said. “They were able to knock some down, and you could tell it got them going and got them excited. Slowly but surely, they crept up on us.” Thanks to a three-pointer by Pusar, Harvard took the lead back at 45-43, and two buckets by Harris stretched it to 49-43.

Rather than send a UConn player to the line, Washington let Rashad Anderson hit a three-pointer with 1.8 seconds left to tie it. UConn won in overtime. And on it goes.
