Annually the first head-to-head meet of the season, the matchup against the Jumbos always carries the tone of a warm-up. “I pretty much expected that we were going to do well,” Harvard coach Peter Brand said, adding, “I think it was a good warm-up for the coming weekend at NYU, where we are going to have some really tough...
