The championship match was full of momentum swings, and in the end Harvard got caught, at the wrong time. It faced a team that would not give up.
Harvard, was seeded first. and, by the statistics, the crimson was clearly the best team in the tournament.
But, as the old cliche goes, the final score was the only stat that counted yesterday.
Maryland had something the Crimson, didn't. What it was, I'm not sure.
It wasn't the talent. Or the coaching. And it was more than just experience.

Maybe it was heart. But knowing this Harvard squad, I'm reluctant to make that statement.
I guess Maryland was just due for a win.
