In response to LyleGold
Both team are better defensively than they are on offense, so I expect a low scoring physical game. Each are missing not only one of their two respective best offensive weapons (Towns & Bruner), but Penn is without Wang and others are banged up. Harvard has been playing without Bassey, and others are banged up. Bassey returned last weekend for limited minutes and only able to contribute on defense.
I expect Brodeur and Aiken to score, but also find themselves the focus of the opponent's defensive scheming. For Penn that means Goodman, Woods or Silpe need to score and for Harvard that means Lewis, Kirkwood & Juzang. If anyone else can contribute in a meaningful way that can be the difference. At Harvard, it was Djuricic & Haskett and it could be Catchings. For Penn it could simply be Washington returning to form.
I'd be surprised if the winner breaks 60.
