But that doesn't take away the sing of losing. Even after Harvard played Yale evenly for most of Saturday's contest, the Elis got the last laugh.
In Saturday's game, the defense was not quite good enough to stop the Elis. Against Princeton on February 18, the offense had its shooting troubles.
The Elis are led by the senior backcourt of Damon Franklin and Josh Jennings and have received significant contributions in recent weeks from freshman Dan Okwonko.
The main question for the Crimson will be the play of the bottom five seeds. The top four Harvard players will almost assuredly win, as they did in this weekend's match against the Elis.
"This," on Friday night, was Harvard's agonizingly close loss to the Elis, a loss that almost certainly could have gone the other way with a little luck.
