The rout continued in the second half. Princeton began to pull away and only Long, who finished with 15 points, was able to keep it somewhat close. The Crimson finally went to the line for the first time in the game with Coleman's attempts three minutes into the half.

The Crimson's shooting percentage picked up considerably in the second half as the Princeton reserves made their defensive presence felt by letting the Crimson shoot 60 percent from the floor in the second half. It didn't matter because the Tigers still one-upped the Crimson, shooting 61 percent in the latter half.

Young was the answer Saturday night. The center finished 4-of-5 from 3-point land and 10-of-11 overall for a career-high 30 points. The 3-point shots were especially amazing, considering they came off screens and were always set shots from the top of the key. Young made a mockery of everyone who tried to guard him, including Coleman and Clemente.

"We were incapable at the five-spot tonight," Sullivan said. "We put a smaller guy on him, a bigger guy on him. Young was absolutely terrific."

The Crimson defense overall in the second half was equally as incapable. None of Sullivan's permutations seemed to work on the Tigers' variation of the motion offense. When Harvard went into the zone, it initially frustrated the Tigers, but they easily recovered and El-Nokali hit the outside shots and finished with 13 points. When Harvard went into a full-court press, the results were almost comical, as Young had a slam dunk off an easy break and the Tigers also completed a "home-run pass" play behind two Crimson defenders.

Harvard came up short on the offensive end and the Tiger defense capitalized on the fact that the Crimson attack is very limited. Only Long was "on" the whole night, and the result was an 18-point defeat.

Penn 79, Harvard 52

The Friday night game provided an almost perfect template for the Princeton game. Harvard and Penn both played tight defense early in the first half, but the Crimson was unable to score inside, leading to an early 20-9 deficit.
