W. Cagers Split Pair of Games

Crimson Loses to B.U., Downs Bucknell in Weekend Tourney

Against the Terriers, the Crimson suffered from a poor shooting performance and generally sloppy play. The Crimson turned the ball over an atrocious 33 times.

"It was a tough loss," Feaster said. "We felt we could have beaten them. We just didn't play very well."

The Crimson trailed just 35-32 at the half and then had a 52-51 lead with 10 minutes left in the game. This time, however, the Crimson was on the opposite end of a string of baskets.

The Terriers scored 16 consecutive points to build an insurmountable 67-52 lead with 5:31 left in the ball-game.

Harvard was able to pull to within eight at 72-64 with one minute remaining, but that was as close as it got.
