M. Hoops Hosts Brown, Yale

Making the two-point shot will also be a big factor. Harvard managed to connect on a meager 35 percent of its shots from the floor against the Bears, as well as an atrocious 45-of-118 over the weekend.

However, other than Hunt's extraordinary performance and the team's poor shooting, the Crimson put in a solid effort against the Bears, winning the battle of the boards, 40-29, Junior forward Tim Coleman pulled down nine rebounds, and Prasse-Freeman tacked on 11 boards and dished out eight assists.

"We didn't play as aggressively as we could [against Brown]," Clemente said.

The inside game should be a definite advantage for Harvard. In addition to pummelling the Bears on the boards, Coleman abused Brown forward Alaivaa Nuualiitia for 18 points on 9-of-18 shooting, and held the hapless Bear to ten points on 3-10 shooting.

Against the hated Bulldogs, Harvard was again victimized by an outstanding individual performance by sophomore forward Onatje Woodbine, who scored 28 points but went only 8-of-18 from the field.

"We're actually not going to change too much [to defend Woodbine]," said freshman scoring guard Brady Merchant.

Forward Onnie Mayshak, whose developing inside presence should aid Harvard's offensive attack in the coming games, emphasized the need to play hard and play together.
