Important to finish around the rim. Opened both halves with 3 or 4 missed layups. Lewis in particular.

Amaker won the game again as a rested Lewis shut down Brodeur for last 5-10 minutes for third time this year. Without Brodeur Penn just doesn’t have the scoring options.

Looks like we get v3 vs Yale tomorrow as Eli’s with double digit lead at the half.

Nice effort today. Defense wins again.

Hopefully we can shoot 3’s tomorrow

One thing that was easy to get lost: it was Aiken's defense in the first half that was pretty big for us. He had, I think, three steals that took away what should have been Penn dunks/layups, in addition to another deflection or two that did the same.

At that point of the game in particular, saving those points was huge.

We did a good job as a team reading where and whn Broduer wanted to kick it out. Forced a bunch of turnovers off of that.

Late too. Harvard had a lot of tips —hands in the passing lanes making it hard.

And in addition to the late game shut down of Penn, Harvard picked up killer offensive rebounds at the end of every game. It seemed like Penn sold out on Defense when they desperately needed a stop, and that left them out of position (or too worn down) to get the rebound.
