...painful eight-game slide at the end of the season. “Jimmy [Goffredo] and [Darcy], they worked hard with us the whole year, and we did not want to see them go out their last home stand getting swept,” said sophomore point guard Drew Housman, who scored a game-high 20 points. “No one ever felt like we were going to lose, even when we got down 11 in the second half.” Twenty minutes into the game, however, it looked as if Goffredo and Darcy’s final...
...shot over 50 percent—12 of 23—from behind the arc and forced 21 Crimson turnovers in the victory.

Lin zipped a no-look pass across the paint to freshman forward Pat Magnarelli, open under the hoop for a two-point conversion. Lin then skied for a defensive rebound...
Apparently, sophomore point guard Drew Housman was not satisfied with torching Princeton after halftime just once—he had to take the Tigers to school all over again. Two weeks after scoring a career-high 33 points in the Harvard men’s basketball team’s 74-68 double-overtime loss at Princeton, with 26 of those points coming after halftime, Housman did it again on Saturday, with one key difference: the Crimson won. At Lavietes, the point guard had a game-high 20 points, 17 of which came after halftime. Those 17 points were five...
