In the consolation round of the tournament, the Crimson had a poor shooting night again and lost to a strong Southern Illinois team, 100-89.
The Salukis, 6-2 so far this winter, shot 54 per cent from the floor to Harvard's 32 per cent, but the Crimson led for most of the first half.
Harvard tied the game at 70-70 midway through the second half, and with three minutes to go Southern Illinois hit five baskets in a row to put the game out of reach for the Crimson.
